Heaven & Hell

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, 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 was purchased for the car, a 400ci small block built by Gary Hettler and used by Byron Setters. With this we finally achieved Rick's dream of running in Superstock and had the pleasure of travelling to Sweden to race at the Veidec Festival in Mantorp in July 2010 and to Tierp Arena in 2011. 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, and despite its history and reputation it did not deliver the promised power.

We are now going to freshen it up over the winter and see if we can't squeeze a bit more out of it in 2012, when we'll again campaign it in the Stock/Super Stock wars in Scandinavia.

Talking of Scandinavia we enjoyed racing in Sweden immensely and reached the semifinals at the Sweden Internationals at Tierp this year. Sweden is a great country, with great people and fantastic racing. All our fellow competitors helped us when we needed parts after breaking our fuel pump and we'll always be grateful for the great sportsmanship showed by the Swedish racers.

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, our debut in Mantorp was absolutely awesome, and the race at Tierp even better. We LOVE SWEDEN!
