SS rules let you run any cam and intake you want, but the heads had to be the snmall valve heads(not the 202s) and you had to run stock size valves and stock compression and the carb had to bbe the stock one(quadrajet). weel he has one of the specialists build tha engine for that class( there are guys out there that build the engines for all the different classes) usually around 20 -25 grand and that camaro runs a 9.89 et with a glide. how they do it with all stock GM cast parts we will never know. thats why they keep getting the big bucks because they never tell their secrets) also if you want the motor freshened or if something goes wrtong and they ne4ed to fix it, they want the motor back, UNOPENED. YOU CANT LOOK IN. if you do they wont work on it. probably all the guys are like that but some are. chevy art
