Like John said - allow me to build an engine from scratch with all stock parts and I will drop the record a half second. Changing rings or bearings is not allowed for SI. If oil touches it, it must remain untouched. Simple rule, easy to follow, no arguments.

umm i got a pot of gold says you wont either... the guy that set the record now has a huge cam and stall and is goning 10.32 off 10.98... so if ur gonna magically go 2 tenths slower then his current setup with no cam lets see it!

In a few years when there is no newer 'stock' short blocks left I guess it will have to be changed to the 'stock internal rebuilt to OE spec' list

How about everyone quit whining and follow the established rules. My car has 77,700 miles on it and probably needs new vlave springs and rod bolts. I am not going to get them untill I take a crack at getting on the top 50 NASI list though. Will I??? Maybe, maybe not. But I bet I am one of the 50 fastest NASI 6-speeds.

I'm not going for the SI record. I think there's more left in my car tho. Yes, I'm still running STOCK valvesprings. I'm shifting around the 6300-6400 thanks to Jeff Creech and his awesome tuning. Like JP mentioned, still running the LS1 intake, stock throttle body, and stock mass air sensor. I'm not after records, just having fun. I consider myself a honest guy and have shared all my info with et/mod data to the entire board. (do search) Just your average guy that loves to go faster. It's just amazing what these cars are capable of and getting the average "spectator" convinced that your not spraying a 150 shot to get these times is sometimes challenging! Have fun guy's and remember we're all on the same team! LaTeR!

A4. Still on the stock tranny. (crossing fingers that it holds up)
Raceweight is around the 3050 mark if I remember correctly. Its in a thread I posted back in March under -Stock Internal "both wheels up pics".

We have allowed different intakes, different tbs. We have not allowed springs, rod bolts, refreshed longblocks.
Argue as much as you want, you are arguing with five years of SI racing on here.
Most folks with cobbled together motors tend to be cavalier with what has been changed, and you can kind of tell based on what they say.

In my experience the guys who complain the loudest about rules are the ones most likely to bend them. Don't be such babies about a few basic rules. You don't make compelling arguments and like I said, we have been doing this awhile.
