Two thoughts from me, one a spec head/spec intake program which means we all by the same head and intake combo to seek parity, requires a solid commitment to purchase what would likely be new induction system around $10-$14k. Or another wild as idea is we go to an absolute spec engine like the crate 572 rated at the same HP maybe around 700 plus a single 100 shot. makes a bunch of cars very competitive, research says that is a $13,000 or so sollution. would require we run slower maybe the 4.90 to 5.10 range but could make a tight group of cars (good show, more cars )Either would be a way to run 2013 as a heads up pro tree elimanator keeping cost down, you could still use your rides with other combos if we to the spec crate motor, run a schedule of 8 races with points and such. Need at least 8 guys to buy in toit either way, I would run the points and deal with the tracks and race some sponsor money. anyone have any thoughts................... -- Texas Pro Stock Association Message Board

I think the original rules will work but the heads must be stock out the box cnc or port work only and not totally reworked with valves moved and angle milled 2 degrees. And maybe run a spec cam so everyone has the same and you can still use most of the parts we still have now.I think it will make for some good close racing and not be to bad on the wallet.
