Default Re: Top Day 2 Musclecars?

Was a line built car and not farmed out. If you were well read in the magazines back in the day you could go to your local Mopar dealer and order one w/o having to be a "factory" driver. The issue on these cars is the term "header" instead of manifold. "Headers" are not allowed in Pure Stock or FAST. The first 3" of these manifolds are cast iron with tubular pipes put into them. Since the factory called them "headers" in the literature they have not been allowed to race. Here's what they look like - http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/2918271...amp;rmvSB=true

They already had 4.56 gears. Take off 4-bolts to uncap the factory &quot;manifold's&quot; and in the right hands would be a hard to beat car. </div></div>

Were these production cars that came off the assembly line or were they farmed out? Curious to hear if they are legal in Pure Stock, too. Did a quick Google search and didn't get a definitive answer.

Thanks </div></div>
