Transforming our NMRA car to run SS this year, so far had to loose the cool cowl induction hood, and the tubular K-Member and lower control arms. Now comes the fun part trying to build a legal motor to run the numbers...

Ohh yea had to take the 2 stages of go fast juice out of it too..

This is a 79 Firebird that I'm trying to get started as an IHRA crate motor stocker. Likely be early next spring before we can get it into the garage. An awful lot of work to do before it sees the light of day.

Sold my big block 402/375. Brian Tilburg is building a small block to run F-G-H/SA? Same old Nova, new combination. Going against the grain with little block racing (again), should be fun.

goodbrush,,,, I don't know who you are,,but I look forward to meeting you and picking your brain and checking out your car. I've got a 72 (old bracket car) taking up space in the garage and its crossed my mind a time or two about turning it into a stocker. I'm also out here in div.6, so I'm sure I'll catch up with you.Good luck with your upcoming season.

Re: Any new Stockers or Super Stockers beeing built
 
I'll hopefully be out sometime next year with our D/S '69 Cobra. Just waiting to pull the triger on an engine. Not sure who to use to build my 428CJ. Also kinda waiting to see what happens with the runner volumes. Don't want to build an engine and not even get to make a legal pass with it.

hey Joe, your car looks bad ***! good luck

Bill Harris 01-02-2009 05:33 PM

Re: Any new Stockers or Super Stockers beeing built
 
69Cobra, the only guy you need to call for an FE Ford is Blair Patrick. 423-837-1514. He's near Chattanooga TN. You'll thank yourself down the road!

69Cobra 01-02-2009 08:03 PM

Re: Any new Stockers or Super Stockers beeing built
 
Thanks for the info Bill. Do you know who is currently using his engines?

Bill Harris 01-02-2009 08:30 PM

Re: Any new Stockers or Super Stockers beeing built
 
Me, for one. Among others, Jeff Velde, John Calvert, RJ Sledge all have used Blair's stuff, as well as Blair himself in his '68 S/S CJ Mustang. He's doing my new S/S FE motor right now. My stocker is a 429, but FE's are his specialty. He also has been one of the few that have taken FE's to Engine Masters the past few years.

Do you watch the FE Forum?
http://www.network54.com/Forum/74182/

Ask about him there for some additional feedback.

69Cobra 01-02-2009 08:45 PM

Re: Any new Stockers or Super Stockers beeing built
 
Yeah, I pop in there every once in awhile. I thought Calvert used Kaft and Velde used Morgan. I guess that's what I get for thinking. Thanks again!

We'll have the avenger out next year in SS. Going to finish up the duster in the next 2 months for stock. Need more garage space.

Re: Any new Stockers or Super Stockers being built
 
Plan to have mine out in late spring,early summer 2009. It has been sixteen years since I last ran it & things have changed "somewhat" in that period so it needs a few updates. My wife said either do something with it or sell it.
Going to run it again in SS/N or O.

Too funny, I was pretty much in the same boat. After 20 years, the urge has returned (for better or worse). I threatened to buy a buy another car last winter but the guy sold it out from under me the nite before I was going to look at it! The wife told me if I wanted to race again, why not rebuild the old car or sell it.

I have found one thing in this that has stayed constant, it hasn't gotten any less expensive. Now I'm not only in the process of refurbing my old car. I'm trying to get a second car started for class racing.

we're still working on our 1997 SS/DS Camaro. Serious trying to get it done by this summer. After gathering parts for 6 years, we have everything except the wheels and tires. Now to make the time to put it all together.

Anthony Bongiovanni, founder of Micro Strategies - a prominent techonology solutions company in New Jersey, is building a 2009 Ford Mustang
to compete in NHRA F or G/SA. This new combination will utilize Fords latest 3 valve 4.6/300hp engine and is being prepared by Jersey based B&B Performance Machine. B&B Race Cars in Tennessee is doing the complete chassis construction, including interior and paint work and is in final stages
of all three. Larry Williams designed the color and lettering scheme. We plan to begin testing in the spring.
