Rod Butcher's engines are being built by Tom Boucher (at one time Rod worked at Tom's shop).

Re: engine builders
 

It all depends on what year/combo 305. How much money do you want to spend?

Butchers car really fly's and has never failed a top end tare down.
Lance and Jason Line really made a 305 malibu Fly in D5
Parson & Meyers Have has several fast running 305 customers
Jim Lewis really knows how to make the 78-79 305 combo fly.

I don't think you can go wrong with any of these guys.

Add Allen Sherman at Trumble Racing Engines.
The husky guy is making some power! :)

Thanks for the kind words, I'd like to think I can make one run pretty well also, I did officially run 11.26 in H/SA with a 1986 camaro 305HO carbureted combination in 1999 at the Memphis divisional and "unofficially" went 10.96 in hallsville texas at a winter series race that year also...that was under much more "stock" rules than we have today, would love for someone to turn me loose on one with today's available parts...

J Allen , You think that's fast for a 305 in Hallsville, I have you beat. We set the record in Hallsville in November 2, 1991 @ 10.90 but did not run fast enough to set the M.P.H. record in C/SA. That shows you what 135 more cubes can do in the hands of the inexperience. LOL

Tom Boucher , Jimmy Lewis and Bub Whitaker are all good people to work with.
