From Competition Plus:

Jason Line - carburetor venturi infraction. Venturis were .008" too large. Jimmy Daniels - cylinder head external modification issue. Displacement was legal.

NHRA Decision: No winner, double disqualification. No competition. The other 14 competitors will share all purse money equally.

I saw them race at Englishtown, N.J. in the early ‘70s. If I try a little, I can still hear the burnouts and smell the smoke.

If you’re not cheating, you’re not trying

.008????
I would ask to see the calibration of the measuring tools..

How big is .008?
Take one inch, divide it into a thousand even pieces, then count up 8.
Smaller than the diameter of a blonde human hair

8 thousandths of an inch?

What’s the systemic error for the tools used for these measurements?

Somehow they were wrong but you can guarantee they weren’t too small.
