Further Clarification To Super Sedan Ruling


Share

Speedway Sedans Australia have released another Media Release in relation to the clarification issued in September, in respect to Super Sedans, and more particularly Cylinder Heads

Speedway Sedans Australia.

PRESS RELEASE.

 

ATTENTION: SUPER SEDANS.

 

There seems to be some confusion over the meaning of the motion passed by the SSA Board on 16/09/2011, which states-

That we use the 2009 Super Sedan Specification Book for the 2011/2012 season. All cylinder heads will be investigated during the season for the new draft.

All drivers are reminded that Ford heads must be OEM standard configuration, with part numbers or replica configuration.”

Moved WASCF Seconded NASRSA.

Carried.

This then means that what is written in the Super Sedan Specification Manual (2009) page 38 under the heading

b. CYLINDER HEADS

Only two valves per cylinder permitted in V8 or V12 engines.

Splayed valve cylinder heads not permitted unless OEM.

Overhead cam cylinder heads are not permitted on V8 or V12 engines.

Canted valve cylinder heads are not permitted, except on Ford as per OEM standard configuration.

Will be the specification for the season 2011/2012.

Cylinder heads must bolt onto the correct engine block (Super Sedan Specification Book 2009 page 37) without any change to the head bolt pattern.

For a Ford cylinder head to be used, it must have a Ford part number cast on it.

A replica head (Ford replica) may be used if it complies with the above specifications.

Further to this, the SSA will during the course of the upcoming season, conduct extensive research into the future direction of the Super Sedan Class. Owner/ driver input will be critical during this research.
