Nice story here ! Scott Hall son of TAD racer Dale Hall has taken his dads old small block that he ran in TAD freshened it up and re did the fuel system . Scott put it in his RED Top Dragster with a power glide . This past weekend they ran a 6.29 at 215 ! Not bad for a motor that was built over 20 years ago !

Looking at a pic of Dale's car now, at U.S. Nationals in 1976. I found two pics. Nice to think that engine lives again.
