Sweet, a very tough bug. I worked with Greg for a while, even raced against your car at oran park a few years ago. I think it ran in the 9's, and I ran in the 14's. Good sh#t....:thumb

Just an updated pic before it might all get pulled apart and a new body of the oval veriaty might get put on. don't know yet! just saves rebuilding the oval pan. Or might even sell it for the oval rebuild. Who knows.
Note to self be more decisive !
