Dave,
Page 39, 4.AA Setback...D/WB where D is the distance measured from the front
spindle transverse centerline to the front-most spark plug hole and WB is
the wheelbase.
Altered has a maximum setback of 25%, Modified has a 50% maximum setback
with a 25% minimum.
Tom, Redding CA - #216 D/FCC (I found that 50% setback was too much for car
balance)

If you have a 100 inch WB (legal or not just to keep the math easy) and a
50%
setback seems to be allowed in altered again for an example ( page 57 2006
rule book) The the front spark plug Has to be 50 inches or less from the
front
spindle centerline? seems correct from what I read. The if i understand this
right No matter what engine front plug dimension stays the same and the rear
of the engine falls wherever it ends. If I read this right the inline 6 has
the greatest added rear weight and the v-6 the least.. Might make the inline
have an advantage unless I miised something large..
Did I??
