INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Paul Adams and Ray Paquet bringing in the ole FE's, Jimmy with his 396 vette and the smallest motor in the class A.H. Adkins with the AMX..... Now where is that Tony aka Honkin Hemi, to round out the B class runoffs? Will the CJ show up as well............

there also could be another FORD in the B class...........shhhhhhhh

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Tony is intered in a 68 Cuda SSAH

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

thanks Chuck, I must have overlooked him..

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Stephen, could this other FORD you speak of possibly "Wreck" the class.....:rolleyes:

I will be at Indy this year supporting all of my Ford Edsel brothers....:D

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Hope he has it together and tested.... Beautiful car and outstanding construction....

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

I believe Jimmy's Corvette is a 427/425

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

I bet it would take a pretty good "Crew" to Wreck this class.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Jeff you got that right to a T....

I'll be by to say hi at Indy.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Scott , its been the 396 combo since last year...

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

......Unless he put the 427 back in,but I know he has been rinning the 396 . his entry is a little diff from previous years also....

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Does this group have anything in common with the resurrected TV show
"DALLAS"

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Probable as much as "Kelly" s Heros.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

WOW!!!! This is some real top secret stuff with all the codes nobody has a clue who you're talking about:D

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

he's testing and planning on going to bg,i don't think he's got enough grade points to get in indy.hey kris give me a call when you get home if you have time,i'know you'll be busy with family but would love to catch up some.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

I remember a green Ford out of the Cincinatti area in the 70/80s. Ellison engine service back too??? LOL

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Indy went to 1 grade point today. Right now there are 42 spots open in Super Stock; he'll get his grade point at BG, and then hope there are still spots available.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Scott, I was at Jimmy's the other day dropping off some work. The 396 is in. He'll probably come to Bowling Green this weekend for the combo.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

It will be interesting to see how it runs. What's the difference in weight and hp ratings?? I ran the car as a '67, I don't know what year he is claiming now. I think I ran at 3290 when I ran the L88 in SS/B.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

I can't give away any of the secrets I know, the crotchety old cuss will be on me like white on rice if I do. :D


"Old age and treachery will overcome youth and exuberance". :cool:

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

ok boy's he was testing last night for the great return,that 's all i'm going to say.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Shot heard round the world... lol well at least to Afghanistan. Three very nice hits for the first time out with a new car. I would say it should be a class contender once its tuned in.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Dallas and the Wreckin Crew were at Edgewater last night for a little test and tune. Dick Butler was right , what a beautiful car. Six years in the making. Silver over Poppy red. You have to see this one in person. Been watching Dallas race for over 45 years, all of his cars were great looking and fast, but this car is over the top. No surprise, a couple of passes , plenty of power and a 9.06 first time out. No need to say any more. Good luck Dallas and hope to see you at Indy.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

:eek: Fixed it for you :eek:

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Plenty of POWER for Shore!!:D Dallas Kelly.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Hopefully things will go well at BG and there is still room at Indy once he get that grade point. Then there will be three T-bolts in SS/B. 1964 all over again....:D

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

And one T-bolt in A/SA:

7402 - A/SA - Tibor Kadar - Peoria AZ - '64 Fairlane Ford 427 - TOM NOLAN

1964 all over again indeed!

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Geez...I'm rootin' for the little AMX. Doesn't anybody out there give it a prayer? :confused:

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Definitely not, against Paul Adams or Jimmy Bridges, and probably not against Ray Paquet.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Good news. I know Dallas has "hand done" this entire work of art. MPR does a wonderful chassis job and Dallas should win Best engineered. Good luck Dallas I am so excited for your come back to SS. Too Bad we couldnt Keep TOP/SS a little longer. Maybe it is time to restart..
Dick

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

I wouldn't count it out.
This is gonna be one heck of a show.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Scott -

'66 427 - 2998 SS/B Iron heads, 3063 Alum heads 435/445

'65 396 - 2738 SS/B Iron heads, 2803 Alum heads 395/405

These are achievable. My car weighed 2775 w/driver when it was built. That was without lightweight seats, with iron heads, filled block. We had 350 lbs. above the rear axle and additional 100+ ballast in front of the radiator to make the 50-50 rule (remember that?).

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Breaking news.....:D Charlie Wescott is testing Ray Paquet's car tonight... Charlie first time behind the wheel of a Ford ever....

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Where did they test ?

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Not sure to be honest. Charlie posted a photo on Facebook but I couldn't tell where they were.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

we tested at martin

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

How did it go?

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Congrats Charlie on your first Ford experience, but be careful these ole FE school bus motors will grow on ya.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

It went pretty well. We were helping Ray get used to the clutchless trans, shift light stuff.
He should be fine at indy. I still dont have the new motor done yet, seems that the fords I have been working on lately, take forever.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

Welcome to our world Charlie. You can't just go to the local parts store or aftermarket for that mater with out being on the special order it will be 8 to 10 weeks or longer list.

Re: INDY: SS/B looks interesting
 

I ordered tool steel lifters for my AMC stocker in March! This will be their first set they've made so I knew it would be awhile. On Monday I'm placing an order for a Hall effect distributor from ICE Ignition. They're in Australia. I'm sure my parts will be on the slowest boat available. I'm used to it.
