funny you should bring that up! I have a friend in my area who still has
his TR-3 racecar that he last raced with a Judson(until 68). as well as a
tr-4 racer with a judson. I would be interested to hear why you think
no-one would race one that way. I have always assumed a fair power
increase, would it be avoided because of a class change?

As others have noted in other replies (John Rollins and David
Whiteside).
These are not particularly difficult decisions. First of all, very few of
these cars are out there entering vintage races. When they do, the rule has
always been that they are welcome provided the owner can document that the
car ran in that configuration during the eligibility period of the vintage
group in question.
The real problems that exist in vintage racing are the cars that
regularly compete in vintage events with a variety of non-period performance
modifications. They are not hybrid BMC/Chevys but they are also not
faithful
to a set of rules from the appropriate period.
