New-Old Guy
« on: October 26, 2014, 05:47:32 AM »
Hello I'm the new "Old Guy" here. My digger came to me as an in front of the barn find in 1995 we got it racing again in 1997. It was first powered by a blown 6 carb 322 Nail Head. I've run 151 CID Pontiac and a Chevy II style 4 cylinder stroked to 171 CID as well as the current 283 Chevy. A shorty glide and an Olds rear round out the power train. It's run a best of 7.53 in the 1/8.
