The 1966 275HP 273 motor that was put into an A Body '66 Dart SPECIFICALLY to run D Stock at that tume in ONLY lrgal now, as a Super Stock.

Go look at the NHRA Classification Guide for 1955 Dodges and you will see that the 375 HP Darts are only listed as eligible for SUPER Stock...
They took a car that ws purpose-built by the factory for a certain class *D/S) and made it illegal to run that class with it!!!
I couldn't believe it, so I called NHRA Tech and the person there said that yes, that was the case.
I asked WHY???? They said call back tomorrow fpr an answer, so I will surely do that.
That's incredible....
Oh, and the number for Tech that is in the rulebook is connected to a fax machine. I had to cll their general number and get them to patch me through to the Tech Dept.
What a way to run a railroad....
I'll post what I find out tomorrow, about the legality of a 1966 275HP D Dart in Stock. Stay tuned.
