A number of classes allow motor swapping but it has to be the same brand, Ford -> Ford etc. With all the aftermarket pieces including blocks and heads is there some general cut off rule as to when it

You can run any internal combustion engine in all classes except Production, Grand touring and Vintage Engines. In those classes you must run a production block (no aftermarket at all). I think what

Along the same subject. I was studying some Pontiac TramsAm data and notice that in 1989 they produced a TransAm with a turbocharged Buick 231 V6. I believe that they produced over 500 of them. This

If you can replace your carb with a Hillborne, I don't see why you couldn't chuck the huffer and substitute an injector. As long as the block is stock all else is fair game the way I see it. Jim in P

Why would you take the turbos off when the car will run 275+ in 4 miles ala John Rains?

Normally this would be the case. However, in the situation of the turbo V6 in the Firebird this configuration was available only as an Indy Pace car replica in 1989(I think). Removing the turbo woul

I didn't quite finish my thoughts in the previous email. A Chev 350 in for a Chev 283 is NOT a swap. Sorry for any confusion. Dan -- Original Message -- From: Dan Warner <dwarner@electrorent.com> To:

Hi, Is a GM Bowtie block considered a engine swap? It's not production but it is GM. If so would that "bump" a Production car to a Gas Coupe? Tom Stewart

The SCTA rule book says: "An engine swap is the replacement of the original engine with one of a DESIGN which was not available as a factory option". A Bow Tie block is of the same design as every o

Your definition is correct per Section IV-12 However, if this was strictly adhered to, how did the records in several pro classes (ie AA/GT, A/GT, ) get set when no big-block was ever installed in a

Apparently SCTA made a detour in the rules for the /GT classes only. In these classes certain engine swaps are permitted, Chevy BB in a Corvette, or Porsche 911 six in a Porsche 914, Ford in a Ford,

Yeah, that was sort of my read also. Not that I mind - the more engine/body combos you can run, the better. Ed
