[The Legend]

You realize you will be down 500hp and 4000 rpm to to average back of the pack
Cadet right ???

[thewick2w]

No didnt

Legend, he's talking pure stock not street stock. They run stock heads, intakes, and 2 barrels. Only issue I see is that they have vortec heads. And I believe aluminum 4 barrel intakes. Not allowed under current rules. Horsepower would be damn close to current cars I believe.

[thewick2w]

Rules supposed to change to allow them

[faster1]

these would be a good competetive engine for pure stocks if the rules are enforced in the class. I never understood why vortec heads are not legal in this class.

I agree. Much cheaper and easier to buy than a set of tricked out camel humps. Allow dual plane aluminum intakes too. Take the expensive, hard to find, exotic factory parts out of the game.

That's why I pushing to legalize crate motors that makes parts way easier and cheaper

Can we cut the purse yet?

[714d]

The problem with a strictly sealed crate class is the tech that goes along with it. Create a set of rules that makes a 602 legal to run with the current cars unsealed so that they can be checked like any other motor. Make the engine rules so you can buy a 602 or build your own with similar specs so there's no advantage either way. And TECH EVERY WEEK

No cutting purses at humming bird we raised them don't act like this changes enough to cover a purse cut the folks at hummingbird are a great group so don't start your shit with them people saying dumb shit like that is roode and not to tolerated by this guy they do what they can for racing

Dude I'm not the grammar police- but how bout a period in your last rant- maybe spellcheck??? Gives me a headache just reading it- crates don't work- end of story. Not just here- pretty much everywhere. They are slow - people cheat them up- tech doesn't check. That's the legacy of crate motors.

[interceptor10]

So, you want people to throw out existing motors and spend $3500 for a crate motor?

[thewick2w]

No just want them to be legal not change anything

[JollyFun]

Or you could just put an $800-$1000 claimer on the "pure stock" motors. That would make people think a little more about spending 3-5k on a motor that someone could buy next week for a grand..

[thewick2w]

Correct just trying to keep the division

[greaseball]

Why worry about rules? There not.

[thewick2w]

Cause I play by them

[mcmillen61m]

I ran a 602 in my purestock with a 2 barrel at tricity and I was winning races
