b)    The word “Stock” means unmodified factory original parts or components.

2)    Overall Engine

d)    Must be Chain Drive

3)    Bore and stroke

a)    600cc Maximum displacement for an engine model that was new in 2006 or newer. Older engines maximum displacement is 637cc. Engine model is defined as a manufacturer redesign of overall engine. See Specification list.

b)    No strokers or de-stroked engines

4)    Head and cams

a)    NO PORTING or deporting of intake or exhaust runners.

i)     Valve jobs, valve grinding, valve seating, valve seal modification and valve seat cutting are allowed.

ii)    Valve seat inserts may be reworked or replaced with any seat of original dimensions.  Any dimensional thickness of the stock inserts may not be increased.  Valve seats can be ground with multiple angles.  Blending of the valve seat into the head is permitted but cannot extend more than ¼” into the aluminum head measured from where the seat meets the head.

b)    OEM Head only.

c)    Cam may not have a higher lift than the stock factory cam. (duration is open)

d)    Valves cannot be larger in diameter than factory stock valves.

5)    Bottom End

a)    No machining to remove weight from the crank (balancing of crank is ok) (no after-market cranks) (no lightweight cranks) No polishing or coatings of any kind

b)    No aluminum connecting rods.

7)    Ignition

a)    No aftermarket ECU’s, stock appearing ECU only. ECU must be a production ECU that was originally supplied by the same manufacturer as the engine. Racing ECU’s may be used, as long as they were originally supplied by the same manufacturer as the engine. Ex: Honda motorcycle engines must run ECU’s that were supplied by Honda on their motorcycle engines.  Re-flashing of ECU and factory race ECU’s are allowed. Rev limit for all 600cc (nothing larger than 600cc) engines is 16,100 rpms. Rev limit for all 636cc engines is 14, 800 rpms. U6SA specified Rev Limit must remain intact at all times (no switched or gear specific limiters). If a computer is hooked up to check the ECU it must be set to U6SA specified rpm’s, no tolerance. See specifications list for RPM limits.

b)    All cars must have the PA standard connector for the track to check engine rpm rev limit. These are available from the chassis manufactures and engine builders, and at the track. All cars must leave intact the rpm wire coming from the ECU.

e)    No traction control device.

f)     No more than one ECU box present in or on car.

g)    A 100 rpm over rev tolerance for the purpose of tech inspection is acceptable. (Note: this does not mean you can turn up the rpms in any ECU by any amount)

8)    Air Induction system

a)    No mechanically forced induction (turbo charging, supercharging)

b)    Any carburetors may be used on any engine, regardless of year of engine.

i)     Note: Switching to carburetors on engines that came with fuel injection usually increases the rev limiter due to the removal of the injectors as the ECU cuts fuel to limit rpm’s before it cuts the ignition. A re-flash of the ECU will be required if using carburetors in order to comply with the rev limit rule 7. a)

c)    If the engine did not come from the factory with fuel injection, fuel injection may not be used.

9)    Exhaust

a)    A muffler must be used with the exhaust system that will keep noise levels within individual track limits.
