I have been running my Duster for a few years now, and we have been chipping away at the ET over that time. I finally got it certed to +8.50 this week even though I think I was supposed to have it done already. Although, nobody complained about it, I like to try and keep my junk up to par.

Does getting a car certed increase the value at all?

I was trying to think when he ran faster than 8.50 to need a 7.50 cert.

Edelbrock headed 408

422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph

Its a check mark in the right column thats for sure...the fact that it will pass a chassis cert is always worth something
