Default Re: Top Day 2 Musclecars?

That would be FUN! About 2900 lbs, right? Great engine, too.

Which brings me to my next point - if you were going to break this into different classes, what would it look like? Day 2 has different meanings to different folks, but there are a few different levels.

1. Day 0 - not a real class, but you start off with the same rules as Pure Stock Drags, so the PSD folks can easily run the below classes.

2. Day 2 - larger tires allowed, but no slicks. Larger wheels, too, of course. Slapper bars allowed. Headers allowed, along with free-flowing exhaust (limited to 2.5&quot; and mufflers that were available from '64-'71?).

3. Day 3 - Period correct slicks allowed. Gears can be deeper than what was factory available. Shift kits ok for auto trans and aftermarket shifters (period correct) for manual trans. Aftermarket cams ok as long as it's a grind available from 64-71. Period correct intake, ignition, and carb upgrades ok, but no holes in the hood. No machine work (porting, etc) on heads or short block. No body mods, no mini-tubs, no aftermarket hood scoops. Open headers ok.

4. Day 4 - Engine swaps allowed, but only something available from 64-71. Body mods allowed. Hood scoops allowed. Engine machine work allowed. Rear-end swaps allowed. Removing weight (back seat, etc), allowed. Hole in the hood allowed. Tunnel rams ok.

What did I miss?
