These are the only crate motors that will be allowed and they MUST BE THESE PART NUMBERS WITHOUT EXCEPTION! They must not be modified in ANY manner from the factory specifications, with the exception of the road race oil pan & matching pump. Headers of any type will be allowed. Merge Collectors of any brand or type are NOT allowed, however.  

Any motor may be run with any body, HOWEVER, the series request that you run a motor that corresponds to the appropriate manufacturer (style) of the car, (i.e.: Dodge motor, Intrepid body, Ford Motor, Taurus body). This is to enhance our ability to attract sponsorship from the various primary and secondary manufacturers of parts and supplies for the various marques.

These motors will be allowed until at least the end of the 2010 season, which will allow competitors the ability to utilize them for 5 full seasons. Post race weights may be raised or lowered for specific engines as necessary to regulate equality

All current ZZ4 355 HP motors will be grand fathered and will continue to be allowed as long as they are available at the current weight restrictions.

Please check with Dave Arnheiter or Steve Carvajal regarding the purchase of oil pans and pumps prior to purchase. At this time, no dry sump systems or external wet sump systems are allowable. Engines matching the above specifications and part numbers are allowable for the remainder of the 2004 season
