just the model year, as long as the body itself looks from the era/can be made to look from the era
Did something change recently with emissions within the game?
I’m finding it impossible to exceed WES8 with a pushrod engine unless I utilize turbos…
If you absolutely want it to be a pushrod engine, try running a lower cam profile and compression, while having a higher fuel map. For mine, before I applied techpool and quality, I had a cam profile of about 15 to 20, compression of 10:1, and the fuel map up at around 80. I have also found that the final drive setting seemed to affect the WES rating as well.

I’m building a pushrod V8 for another challenge and I’ve found that lowering compression and cam profile works, personally having a rich fuel mixture didn’t help me. The car itself also affects WES ratings, depending on weight and gearing.
I need your opinion…I can’t decide which looks better.
The bodies are forcing me to make compromises, so I’ll leave it up to how the front end looks.

You can ask other people for their opinions but I don’t feel it’s fair for me to help you in this way.
I’d put my vote on Ferox.
Slimmer, tighter face, nice and boxy, muscly wheel arches. Looks the part to me.
Just my opinion, but I prefer the look of a single wide scoop on it like the Aemulator.
Depends, the wide scoop looks like a demon scoop but the twins look like the oldschool swinger dart scoops.
Both are equally nice in differnt ways.
(But i like twins)

Thanks for the input folks. Used the Ferox as a base and gave 'er a minor facelift with a chin implant. (Splitter guards are not removable)
Ended up using the wide single scoop as a twin scoop didn’t make much sense on a naturally aspirated direct injection engine.
I might be late to ask but do you mean at least 4 or 3 AND upwards?
3 and upwards

AMR PENTANAMA GT
TGR Industries presents the AMR Pentanama GT.
A creation not anticipated by the design team, but dearly loved once birthed.
The Pentanama carries inside it a bespoke engine designed to harken back to the ol’ days of American muscle. A 7.6L V10 burbles inside the engine bay. Utilizing an overhead cam design, the engine sports a variable timing and lift system for each of the 2-valve cylinders.
This technology offers modern quality emissions, while providing additional torque throughout the rev band. An advanced ECU maintains appropriate air flow to the engine at any point up to its 7500rpm redline.
The ACV 10.3 V1 is an aluminum alloy block paired with aluminum heads to keep everything light. Forged internals were the only way to reliably support the power being produced within this engine. The VVTL system feeds air into the naturally aspirated engine via a singular intake manifold, supported by a quality port injection fuel system. The exhaust mixture is piped to the atmosphere via twin tubular exhaust headers joined to a main 4" exhaust.
In this configuraion, the ACV 10.3 V1 makes just shy of 550 lb-ft and just over 610 HP. Paired to an advanced 5-speed auto-gearbox, this powertrain will put pavement wrinkling power to the road, while being light enough to be agile through the corners. The chassis supports this agility through modern suspension advancements like a bonded aluminum frame and multilink rear suspension.
All of these factors bring together an modern American Muscle Revival vehicle available for purchase of MSRP $45000 AMU.
