So let me start :hihi:
It strikes me that the rules have been drafted with late model Fords in mind.
If there is an "unopened" Cleveland getting around the streets it's got plenty of km's on it.
"Must run cats" I would add where fitted.
The "standard manifold" on a Windsor or Cleveland is a much larger handicap than on an XR8
Perhaps we could have some sort of age based modification allowance?
I will think on this more and try and come up with some idea instead of just whining :
My thoughts exactly.

Okay, here is a few ideas. As Work Horse said, In classes where it says MUST RUN CATS, make it MUST RUN CATS WHERE LEGALLY REQUIRED (IE 1986 and after cars).

I also don't like the idea of running X series cars in different classes to E Series / AU / BA. I think there is someway you can run them toghether.

Performance Street.
All bolt ons allowed. (Agreed)
Must stay N/A. (Agreed)
Must run 98 octane fuel. (Agreed)
Un opened engines. (How about Standard Rebuilt)
Standard manifold, Oversize throttle bodies allowed. (Reword to Include Carburettors)
Tyres, can run changes to equavalent ratings, NO adr or Drags (RWC Standards) (Agreed)
All body parts must stay intact. (Agreed)
No removal of exhaust components. (I assume you mean "Dropped Pipes")
Aftermarket Exhaust allowed. (Agreed)
Must run Cats. (Where Required)
No body mods allowed or chassis changes. (Agreed)
No Diff Changes (Please clarify if a Ratio Change is included in this)

Will post more ideas later. Thanks for everyones input.
