Jim, I think that the rule is just now being enforced, and the angle milling the head is what they do.


They are not enforcing that rule. Dad and I went to the Dutch Classic with Barton last year. Daniels won the event so we stuck around for the tear down. They checked Intake runner CC’s, Combustion CC’s, Stroke, Bore and that was about it. They might do more tear down at Indy but I don’t know. There was a big SS/AH dust up about valve train angles a year or so ago but NHRA wouldn’t check it even though Barton would give them the tools to do so. So because of that everyone just runs the new lifter angles.

And you’re right I wasn’t there back when Barnett’s was doing Dominic’s stuff. That’s why I asked what kind of geometry he was running with my “?”.
