It's really nothing that special Joey,, Until just a few weeks ago,,, A ductile iron crank, GM x rods, SRP 4.040 flat top pistons, a set of AFR race ready 210 heads flat milled to 70cc, and a SuperVic intake with one of Patricks XC series carbs. Cam is a Crane hydraulic roller 236/246ish with .58 lift, Hooker Supercomp headers, Hughes TH350 with a brake, 5.43 gears and Hoosier 33x22.50-15 QT Pros. I must say, taking out the bigblock Nova on national TV was a hoot,,,, but treeing (or would it be 'arming) Dave Workman in the final 2 hot laps was the ultimate. Dave is a hard core NHRA Super Stock racer that does nothing but travel around the country racing the NHRA events. I race with him in ADRA and he is a TOUGH customer to get around when it comes to a real tree start. He may look old and senile,, but NEVER underestimate the old dawgs His r/t's in competition are stellar.

Again.,... thanks guys.
