| Not sure the builder was all that great. Seems like he must not have received the last payment. Dave Koehler - Koehler Injection - http://www.koehlerinjection.comFuel Injection - Nitrous Charger - Nitrous Master Software - Balancing 99% of fuel injection problems are electric. |

| Dave, I made the last payment and brought it home It was built with all Ed Quay, super stocker style parts. The work, fitment, welding, detail are all excellent. To my knowledge, it was built by an individual in his home shop. It is a very nice, rust free car and will make an excellent race package. I bought it from the second owner who never did anything with it and lost all the original information. It has been in storage for several years. It does not matter who did the build to this point, it is simply something I would like to know. I will complete it in fine style.

| Steve, the front tires show to be 12 years old and the true Firestone slicks mounted for construction tires are, well, very old. They hold air about 4 hours You will notice the rearward mounted caster wheels. I added the second set near the front and sent it to the body shop completely stripped down to the last screw. In primer at the body shop.

| I am old so it seems reasonable that I continue with my olden experience. I plan to build a 408 - 413 CI range SBC with 23 degree 60/40 valve offset. The build will make around 725 horse and run 5.85 1/8 on methanol. My wheels are turning [so to speak] about the engine combination. As the build begins I will post updates.

Perhaps another MFI engine? Never heard the final results of the truck MFI that you completed earlier this year. |

| MarkeMark, The Super 10 owner had me remove the mechanical injection and install a Get'M Garage twin blade carb. For that owner, in that situation, it suited him better. It is faster and more drivable with the twin blade but in fairness to the mechanical injection, I did not have enough time with it to sort it out. He sold the system after I removed.
