New Powerplant

Folks,

Drum roll please..........

Those of you that read my blog know how long I have been working on making my racing dream happen with all of the setbacks in the last 3 years. A major step forward for running the "Black Hole" is under way as we speak. Today I turned 57 years old and my wife Traci has purchased me an all billet Alan Johnson Hemi engine with Brad Anderson 8 heads!!!!

We are sitting in a hotel in Lancaster, New York waiting to pick it up at Mike Janis' race shop. The engine belonged to a veteran ProMod racer named Marc Caruso. It was a spare engine of his and now it is going to go into My 63 Vette ProMod.

I will have to completely refit everything including the headers but it will now be a serious ProMod capable of going fast.

The Chevy engine will be put back together as a blown gas engine (the way I built it for the boat) and I will put it into my dragster so I can go faster in it when I am ready.

I have wanted a first class Hemi engine for a long time and thanks to my Sunshine, in 24 hours, I will have one in the back of my truck and head back to Houston.

I can't wait to get started putting it together!
