O.E.M. 1974 Chevy2 steel block, head, & crank. Sleeved it up & put real small pistons it in. I'm all in. Looking for partners that would be interesting in supporting this effort so we can support this form of racing, at least in the Northern IL & WI areas. I don't know how to adapt EFI to it, so we will be using mechanical injection from that era too. My 1995 Gaerte is a purpose built race engine, so as of this week, it may be down the road though.

I agree though, POWRi didn't "start" this. My thoughts were on how the whole form was allowed to grow from lots of people saying "all you gotta do is go to the junkyard & get an engine now"...which I know you still CAN; like the other post said, when the rules allow $1000s of aftermarket items to be added, it is no longer $600 engine packages (that will be finishing up front weekly / at the RPM that would keep them together all season / etc)
