RaceFanStan should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Before the "common template" the hood, roof & decklid was stock.
It had to be factory produced skins then.
But now only the engine block is a factory production item.
Everything that goes into the engine is aftermarket.

The Chevy engine is an 1/8" stroked 350.
(I think the Chevy 350 is still available in trucks.)
The Ford engine is an 1/8" stroked 351 Cleveland.
(I think the 351 Cleveland has been out of street production for several years.)
The Dodge engine is based on the Chevy engine, Dodge makes the block for racing only.
