I was told the Dart alum block was not allowed, is this true? Also if this is true what is the reason?

I think one rule is no Billet blocks Kurt.

Warhawk is cast.... seems like another useless rule.

The DART isnt allowed due to the expense of the block and the many ways the block can be modified.(Per NMCA)

I did not call it a stupid rule, but I would like to know what is the problem with it. I have two current customers with nitrous drag radial cars that would like to race even if it is not until next year. The block is one of my favorites because we can get about anything we need without welding, but I have not seen any power advantage with it.....

I got an answer back from Jeff on the Dart block, email traffic below. Basically you can run the block!

The rules state LS Based Blocks not OEM blocks. You can run an aftermarket block. Sorry for the late answer I was on the road working an NMRA event.

So the Dart block is legal? This will make two customers very happy!

His answer was yes, the Dart block is OK!

Sent you another email Jeff for the reasons behind it being outlawed so I can try and address the issues you have with the block. I would like to get the process started as soon as possible so they can run next year.
