Am interested in National Auto Sport Association Racing.
How hard is it to get an Aspen/Volare to 3050 pounds?
They have a graph of Horse Power & Torque to vehicle weight that begins with
< 310 FT/lbs & <260 HP at 3,250 pound vehicle (includes driver, measured immediately after race.) So 3050 pound car with me at 200 pounds.
max weight is 3455 lbs at 317 ft lbs of torque & 267 hp
Fiber glass hood, fenders, trunk lid... ?bumper?
lexan door glass, possibly windshield
aluminum radiator (yet stock battery)
bumper mounts?
gutted interior (pro car seats??)
chrome moly roll cage?
manual transmission & manual steering,, lowering the car???
light weight rims? how?
The engine power (must include certified dyno certificate) seems ridiculously easy to reach-not sure about how efficient compared to 4.6 ford mod motors or 5.7 LT gm engines.
600cfm carb (holley 4776), edelbrock performer aluminum intake, rev limiter allowed, stock looking alternator, no antifreeze, 1.6 roller rockers allowed, SFI harmonic balancer, ??GM H.E.I. distributor allowed ?? Davis Unified??, aftermarket oil pan, 10-1 iron compression -- 11 to one aluminum head compression max, any bearings gaskets or fasteners, any plugs or wires, no fuel coolers, fuel cell allowed but not necessary, almost any fuel pump, restrictors {to lower power to the max required allowed but must be listed on the dyno sheet}, no smog, ignition components must be OEM stock or equivalent, stock located OEM ish water pump...
I have a scatter shield, wheel width (74") (between both tires) and front to back length distance meets requirements for the stock-racecars, super coupe wheel flares allowed, along with stock spoiler and stock front airdam, no traction control, the other guys get to use T56 transmissions ??, un restricted brake pads, 16" or 17" rims {probably run mustang rims}18 pounds+, max tire size 275/40R17 allowed, any gear smaller than 4.11, rear discs allowed, Gm is allowed an upper control arm length of 19.25", min ride height is 4.5"...
