I am restoring a '71 that came to me with a 2.0 (with stock EFI) and a sideshift trans. Since the engine is not "as delivered from factory" (a quote from the 2004 PCA Stock Class Rules), can anyone tell me if I'm elegible to compete with this vehicle in Stock Class PCA Club Races?
I'm starting to rebuild the engine now, and am trying to decide whether I want to stay stock or go for more power. I would like to race the car in both solo and club racing events. But I'm not wanting to lighten the car through drastic measures. I want it be have that "showroom" look. That's why Stock Class appeals to me. I want to "restore" the car, not highly modify the car for racing. Any suggestions are welcome. |

Site,
I know Dale tuety. He shows up to a lot of events and does pretty well but often is in a sparcely populated class.... my crowning achievement was beating him after 10 years of trying in 2002 at pueblo... thats when I retired my car and started building the new one.. Dales car is pretty normal, with AMAZING talent behind the wheel. he does pay alot of attention to sprung weight. HE did not upgrade to a 5 bolt for that reason. He did not upgrade from stock brakes for that reason he had custom aluminum wheels made in 7 inch with the correct offset just to save wheel weight... other than the sprung weight, there are not too many tricks on dales car. I'll be back from vacation end of the week pm me if you want more details. brant |
