Jerry, will the Dart block be legal in any manufacturers' car? In other words, since it is not made from any oem parts, would it be legal in a Mitsubishi or? I hope it will not be legal for Quick

I agree with earl, you start letting none oem blocks in quick you will open a whole can of controversy once the domestics start makin quick class cars with some crazy limited production stuff. But i ain't scared. bring it.

If that's true, i guess it will prove again that money talks. I have positive proof that GM's entry into sports compact was based on nhra approving alcohol.

This block should save some money for pro-racers in the long run,being stronger and all,it should have a longer life span,we'll see.

but when you allow this into the quick class its gonna make wy for different aftermarket blocks, pistons, and rods that could throw the scene in a way new direction that Im afraid is the wrong way. I think itsll be good for pro class but not outlaw and quick.just my 2 pennies.-pdang

Yupp Yupp...before we know it...they are going to be campaigning a 3L 4-Cylinder Gm Block or something like that...not good for the grassroots guys.
