Default APBA Super V Light HP limit

I have heard that the APBA Super V Light has a horsepower limit of 575CSHP. Where can I go to determine if that is the case or not or better yet see a copy of the regulation that deals with this?

Thanks.

I found reference to "sealed engines" but nothing on HP limits for engines. Are there other specifications for the Super V Light racing program that includes engine HP limits?

Strock Merc 525's sealed by Tyler Crockett or Innovation. There is no specs...stock merc 525 . Innovation or Tyler will seal and put the engine on a dyno and make sure it is within merc specs.

The motors are the Mercury STOCK 525 or the Vortex HP3 or HP4 are also exceptable. This is a spec class and the motors must be non-modified and sealed by Tyler Crocket or Innovation as authorized sealing facilities. I am sure Gary and Steve, who run SVL would be more than happy to go over things with you.

This is something you should address. You really need a better way of controlling the spec class. We just dynoed a set of innovation sealed spec motors ( not ours) that are so far out of spec it's insane. I can provide the sheets if you want. Smitty
