I took a quick peek yesterday at the technical and sporting regulations to see how it defined who can be in LMP1-H (manufacture) and LMP1 (privateer) and couldn't find the details very quickly so I gave up. But I tend to agree that running a non-hybrid version in the privateer class likely runs afoul of the rules somewhere. If it was anything more than a dream I would dig to find the particulars.
