RULE CLARIFICATION:
We are asked many times what can and cannot be done to the outside of the engine in the port area. Below we have defined what we will allow and disallow. Any intake port will be checked including one’s that have been braced or repaired, they will be checked for stock carb mounting stud locations, center to center distance, height, and port location. Excessive and unnecessary build-up on the outside of the intake port will result in disqualification. Build-up is port epoxy, weld or bracing or any other means of distorting the port’s factory dimensions.
NOTE:
Pullers, if you have the factory fan shrouding in place and during tear down the tech person needs to inspect your engine’s intake port, you will be required to remove the shrouding, even if it requires removing the engine from the chassis. So please have your intake port fully visible for the tear down procedure.
