So........ Because you are not in a position to make a change to your car, the rules should be changed to match what you have laying in the weeds? The rules should be made with the folks who are actually supporting the track every week in mind.

By your logic, if I had an aluminum 434 in my garage and a street stock chassis in the backyard, I should get on racestud and complain that I don't want to build another engine. The rules should be changed so I can come and add another car to the field.

people read things and dont seem to understand them or they just like to pick fights i dont know, i am saying there are  cars parked with 358 engines and 10 inch wheels that wont come out to run with the cars in the streetstock class . here is the thing i have a 2 barrell rochester , a 2 barrell holley 500 a 650 holly vacume secondary  a rochester 4 barrell a 750 holley vacume secondary and a 750 holley double pumper but you say it is fair to keep adding to these rules.and  i say cut the street stocks loose let them run unlimited cubic inch engines and aluminum heads and tube chasis and  quick change rear ends and j bars and bird cages on the suspension hell go all out . oh wait there is a class like this it is called late models ........now read this plain and simple .....THERE ARE CARS SITTING IN GARAGES NOT BEING RACED  , IT IS THE TRACK PROMOTERS JOB TO FIND OUT HOW TO GET THESES CARS OUT OF THE GARAGE AND RACING .I AM NOT BUYING ANYTHING ELSE TO FIT IN AND BE COMPETITIVE I THINK I BOUGHT ENOUGH STUFF , YOU NEED CARS COME UP WITH A SIMPLE SOLUTION . LITTLE GUYS  NATIONAL RULES ARE ALREADY MADE UP SEEMS PRETTY SIMPLE TO ME .   I AM DONE REPLYING TO THIS .cars bring fans and fans bring money.

If you add 10inch to the pure stocks, you have a street stock at some tracks. These two classes are so close now, they need to be combined. Give a weight break for engine size only. Open rules 3200lb like all open shows already are. 358 and under 3000 and tweak from there. Whatever keeps the field competitive. One less class so folks get home earlier. Same cars, combine the purses. Pay about $500 to win weekly. Pay a $100 bonus to first time winners to attract cars from other tracks. (They probably brought that $100 and then some with them anyway) so just giving them their money back. Fresh ideas are not too hard to come up with. Solutions to keep all current cars legal and competitive are the best.

ONE MORE ....UMMM DIDN'T YOU WRITE THIS !!!!!

Yes ace, I did write that the classes would be good combined, but until they are, it sounds like you've got a legal pure stock under the current rules. Just find some wheels, don't ask the current street stock rules to change to suit what would work for you personally.
