Heaven & Hell As Well

We have small blocks in both cars and we are very happy with the performance and especially with our wheels up launches. We build our own engines, transmissions, rear axles, and we maintain them. We recently upgraded the rear brakes in the 1970 Camaro, going to light weight discs and re-plumbed the whole system using Speedflow stainless steel braided hoses and fittings.

 

The '84, driven by Rick all year in 2009, has achieved a best of 9.97 and has produced great wheelies with the rebuilt small block, which was taken up to 407ci after the old stock block gave up the ghost at the National Finals. A new Dart Sportsman Little M block was then employed, with new pistons and rods, but re-installing the same Dart heads, intake and using the same Proform 900cfm carb. A superstock engine has now been purchased for the car, a 400ci small block built by Gary Hettler and used by Byron Setters. With this we hope to finally achieve Rick's dream of running in Superstock and will be hopefully travelling to Sweden to race at the Veidec Festival in July 2010. This is not an engine we built and with which we are not familiar, as Superstock engines are a bit of a black magic art, but we trust its history and have decided to just drop it in before the Summer Nationals and see what it will do, if it all works good we won't freshen it up until the winter. Fingers crossed!

Even when watching races in the States Superstock was always our very favourite class, better than Pro Stock, better than Top Fuel or Funny Car - we always tried to learn from the guys and gals running Stock and Superstock and enjoyed their excellent show immensely. Being part of this means the world to us, can't wait for our debut in Mantorp!
