RED caddy checkin' in

Hi all, I'm a retired Navy Chief, hard core bracket racer, pro crew chief, welder, fabricator, street rod builder and a general PITA to auto parts counter guy's everywhere. I've been driving, thrashin', cursin' and generally abusing Chevy trucks since 1967.
My screen name refers to my current bracket ride, a 225 in. W/B Rear Engine Dragster, powered by a 510 cuin. Cadillac. runs mid 9's and is a relaxing stepdown from the alcohol funny car and pro mod's I play with using OPM ( other peoples money)
My current tow rig is a 1986 GMC narrow 1 ton dually, small block/TH-400. Not the best engine choice, but adequate for my needs. when the SBC dies, it'll get a 500 caddy dropped in and Then It'll have enough torque... See ya 'round the boards, Paul.
