YEA WE RIDE THE SHORT BUS
Rick you will be ready to ax this class before the first hook. Stock appearing is kinda a joke with people building cheater chargers like what these guys are talking about. You would be alot better off and retain your hair with a smooth bore 2.5 with no bushing/step cover rule

I agree with this!
Could also limit to a s300 frame. Most people Probably won't want that though.

harmonic balancer rule is a useless rule. these engines come apart from either too much load or too high compression. harmonics in these engines have never caused an engine failure to my knowledge. correct me if im wrong. and as for turbo rule, you should think that one out a little harder. anyone in their right mind would build a 6.4 if they have to utilize stock component chargers. the 6.4 air setup will outflow the dodge and chevys PERIOD. to make it fair your going to have to either watch fords dominate or do what most other orgnizations are doing/should be doing and make the class true wheel size. make inducer limit. no modified wheels. cast only. no clipped or protrusion wheels. no modified MWE grooves and make it smoothbore with a plug rule. true 2.5 or smaller. i think good power can still be made and a single 2.5 cast wheel will compete with a 6.4 twin setup. a good true 2.5 CR setup should make around 750-800hp which is more than enough IMO.

Should be good. Long as there is a good set of ruels on turbo limit we got a truck being built for the class.

:umno: stock engines will make 700hp with ease. seen 10+ trucks do it firsthand and im rarely around wheel dynos. but if thats your argument then just get whipped by the fords. doesnt matter to me either way bud. i dont pull. just stating facts. the turbo rule is really the only important rule to limit horsepower if thats what your after. if you make to much power....take away a tire. dont make it harder than it has to be. all it comes down to using common sense when writing these rules. stock parts will begin breaking at 450-500hp. people are going to spend money to compete. Period. i think 2.6 has pretty much proven that argument.

its possible. itd make more sense to me. look at the alcohol truck rules? what do they say? really, how many insurance companies know about performance engines.:lolly:
I know what a stock bottom end can put out while holding it together . My truck put down 696hp down this spring at the wheels . I could have mine tuned to the 800hp mark ( with a few changes ) but my bottom end wouldn't last a few pulls .
I also drive mine to every pull and make sure it is legal for where I am going .
All I am saying is when it gets that far out of control where you have to have a built motor to compete in a ws class I will switch to drag racing .

Yes, I agree, everyone kind of gets lumped together.
One of the groups I pulled with required us to have a bracket, or tabs in front of the dampner to keep the dampner from walking off the crank. Not a whole lot of value added on a cummins.

Have to draw the line somewhere, I don't agree with it, but I am sure it is targeted at the guy who makes his bumper out of 3/4" plate and it just happens to be 60" in front of the centerline of the front axle. I say make it a no visible weight rule and go.

Yup - out of air at 600hp on stock chargers
