What is it that YOU don't understand? So in order to be competitive in that
STOCK class, everyone has to take their engine completely apart and mill the
block .020" to have a competitive engine? That's a load of ****! We now know
that the block is legal when the pistons are .010" below the deck, and have
known this for 15-16 years. At some point, to prove a protest, parts may have
to be purchased through a dealership and measured. If the protester is
correct, the cheater pays the charges (probably a restocking charge). What's
wrong
with that system?
