My point is that for the first 10 years of the stock drags, there were only a couple of cars running in the 12's, and we used to ask, "Where are the Chevys? Where are the LS6's, Yenkos, RAIV's, and W-30's?" It seemed to be all 440's and Hemis, Stage 1 Buicks, and your occasional 68 Firebird RAII or 455HO.

Now we all ask "where are all the FoMoCo cars"? Lol!! There for a bit, Stefina's '64 427/425hp Mercury Marauder was the quickest FoMoCo offering running low 13s in a 4300 pound car!
I hope some of the guys here don't confuse Pure Stock with the Stock Appearing/FAST cars that also run on Polyglass & through exhaust manifolds. Whereas the Pure Stock cars are limited to the factory specs, the SA/FAST cars can go hog wild and port, hone, lighten, whatever 500+ cube engine they want, as long as it "looks stock". I might add that they're very good at it, as they're now going 11.0s at 130 mph!
gtaa9: blueprinting is basically putting tolerances & specs at a certain predetermined number, which in the case of our "Pure Stock" cars are the factory specs.
