Re: Redman pictures from 70's (edgewater & others)
RockyJ has a very good memory in post #18. Pic #3 is my Wild Mouse 66 Chevy II running SS/N in 1975. The pistons Rocky mentions were Manley's radical single ring design and I was testing for them. I installed them in August along with an engine vacuum system to prevent oil blow by since there were no oil control rings. This was the setup I ran a month later at Indy where I won the class and beat the national record holder by .05 in the final. Edgewater was my favorite track. I won S/S there the first two times a ran there, beating Harold Stout's Ford both times. Later that Summer the car was runner-up to Bob Marshall in the Super Stock meet and went to the semi-finals in the D3 points meet, beating Ron Mancini in the first round.
