I have also heard the Rockers on a ball stud design head is too time consuming for the quick turn arounds required is some racing. also a string deep skirt block, the crank is set deep in the block so there is a lot of meet around the mains for support. Kasey

Your right, you won't.
I just looked at a rule book for top fuel, Any engine is permitted with some restrictions.

Well, any engine as long as the block and crank specs match a Hemi.

Why is it in modern day Pro Stock the Hemi isnt getting it done...?? Those obsolete Pontiac drivers are still whooping Mopars butt in this class... I would love an explaination for this one from you experienced racers out there.. This is an original pro stock block and aluminum heads developed by Warren Johnson in 1983...Its never been in a car..It can be built between 350 and 650 cubic inches and handle 1400 hp...I stumbled upon it and snagged it for a great price... I would love to have an 83 Hurst Olds car..Kind of a tribute car to race in NPS class..A tribute to ol WJ himself..
1972 Road Runner / GTX 440 4spd Dana 3.54 Just about to turn 26K original miles..
A boat, a GMC truck, some Craftsman Tools, LOTS of Zombie Protection, and a few Goldfish..
If you love someone set them free.. If they come back it means nobody else wanted them either..!!

Hey, If you guys have time. The Super Stock '68 HEMI darts and 'Cuda's (SS/AA) have to follow certain rules. I need these specs for the guys @ work. so far I have;
Must use OE cast iron cylinder heads. Must use OEM heavy K-member and & control arms. Must not be over 426 c.i Must use OEM size carbs.
What else am I missing?
Among other things, carbs must be stock, inake manifold must be of original design (that gets tricky!), crank, rods & pistons (I believe) must be stock weight, valve angles can't change, car must have interior--no gutting, no "cross-breeding" of engine/trans (but oddly, you can use a different rear ). Imagine a 20-30yrear old Comp engine & that's what the S/S motors have evolved into.
