I have a question!!!!!!

What if someone wants the challenge of going fast with a 318?
Or smaller engine?
What if there in a class with cubes per pound of car?
You get weight breaks with smaller engines.
This was a thing years back for sure. I don’t know about today.

Bob Glidon used a small displacement MoPar for a bit with ridiculously crazy ported W2 heads. Won the championship with that small engine. IIRC…..

When I first started on this site my goal was to build my rusty 65 Cuda into a Time Attack car, we have a fairly big road course near by Mosport Park guess it's called Canadian Tire Motorsports Park now.

I Wanted 375-425 hp 273 (hence my name) around 6500-7000 rpm + cause the rules seemed to value factory rated hp more and heavily penalize it, while most mods got very little in penalties.
