I think Rock or Zack Running got Bob's car. It runs the big Q-jet, got a .440 lift cam and had a 2.0 intake and a 1.5 exhaust valve.
I believe you're thinking of Johnny Griffin (R.I.P.) from Raleigh, N.C. John West did the engines for him and it was fast. That was the same car Jim Woods ran as "The Tanker"
