.....As there may not be any of these running any longer the 2% rule might go away. A lot of work for 2" - 3"
Just food for thought...
Good food, I'd take that course,

HEY...we built the 222 Camaro to this rule, complete body off over assembled [tacked togethered ] pro-stock chassis by Alston.
Finished tig welded by certified aircraft welder hired by Pro-chassis. Pro-Chassis wanted welding to be perfect when we were building
for 300 mph. About 100 mph faster than pro-stockers at that time.
Stock body 192.5 inchs + 2%= 196.35 or 3.85 inches.
Why take it out? If you don't want to stretch it, don't.
We also added to the wheelbase. Results 286 mph 1n the 1/4, 294 mph avg, in 1st mile with indicated top speed of 318 mph on parts wash
