I remember when I got involved in building HQ's I sent off a long fax list of questions to the organisations of stuff I was considering, reply came back, No,No,No, fair enough, then ended up @ Manfield for final & stood in the scruitineer shed & watched teardown of top three cars, all three had most of the mods / changes I had sought approval for & passed with flying colours, when I asked the gent who had knocked me back what was going on he looked somewhat uneasy!!!
Similar stuff has dogged the 'old' NZV8's ( 302 Ford & 305 Holdens ), have you read the rules in engine specs, no limit on amount off top of block, no dimension for compression height, no limit to amount machined off intake manifold, & yet get 5 thou oversize on a valve or seat & your out...
Do you recall the names on the side of the three cars you are talking about.
