I said I do it all,,,, Engines, transmissions, ring & pinions.

You misquoted.

No, I don't have a machine shop. I have a couple machine shops I use, one I've used 35 plus years. The other a couple years, closer to where I am now a mile from the Madeira Beach Causeway. They do excellent as well.

69, 69, 69, 69 stuck on a 4.69.

We ain't even got the Penske's on it yet, or turned the distributor - ignition timing.

I'd rather a 1800 pound 4.60 4.70 car than a 2050 pound 4.60 4.70 car, any day.

how does this math add up to you out performing the nesbert

retard arithmetic and lets not forget a 100 lb. driver


Retard, it's all over but the crying, lying and denying. Smile

69, 69, 69, 69, stuck on a 4.69.

Rd 6 loss
Got dropped off hard and broke out .003
Just happened to turn it on and saw that
It’s a good day when you can go 6 rounds in a race like that.

Good job by all involved, gotta give credit where credit is deserved

Not a bad showing though.

That was a hard dump to go 120's.

Thank you Sir

I jetted it off this text message photo following the first time run, I'm at home.

Looks like we're close on mixture according to time slips.

69, 69, 69, 69, 69, 69, 69, 69, 69

It's all new combo... engine, transmission, ring & pinion, PTC torque converter

This is a hair lean methanol.

Amazing how we managed to get this thing right off the trailer. The converter was the main ingredient.

Big thanks to PTC torque converters for the one off custom converter!! Helluva job Kenny F0rd & Lane!!!

Yes, yes and yes.

Perfect Super Pro combo for this young lady, and mother now.

Happy for these people, they've had a lot of bad luck in big cars after winning everything under the sun Jr dragster racing, both daughters.

Thank you Sir. Just now noticed this post.

Yes, the owner of the car and his entire family worked countless hours to turn this deal around, kudos to them indeed.

I do have a serious question. Is the converter one of kennys 10”? I got him to fix me one for my new car that came in on the tight side. I sent it back to him for some changes but have not run it yet. Hoping it is close to what your graph looks like. Maybe a smidge tighter.
