Anybody know the last time that they really seriously tore down a hemi car?Maybe the barn should be
readied for Charlie,Bucky and Barton.That pretty well covers the major players in SS/AH.
Also what happened to Woo?

Larry Woo got one of the new Cobra Jet's. Tyler Hard from the Reading, PA area has his old '68 Barracuda.

Ed ~ I assume teardown for the hemis is the same as it has been since Mopar came on the scene...both the winner and runner-up have to tear down. All the years we were in teardown pistons were pulled, too.

Ed- They have been getting a 1st rate complete teardown regularly

Julie, for those of us that are in the dark somewhat on the goings on in ss/ah, could you post who the engine builders are for the hemi cars at indy. I am sure you know most or all of them.

Thanks, Dave

Thanks for the responses.Thank you Julie,I didn't know they did a thorough teardown after the shootouts.

I'm not sure about Helms and Teuton, but IIRC they have an in-house engine program and were using Westcott components.

Bales has a few different motors that he purchased from other racers. He also had an engine being built by Bischoff but I don't know if that's the motor in the car.

I know who's been helping Marvel but I can't remember the name off the top of my head.

Campbell bought the ex-Wilkes Cuda and they were doing their own engines before they sold the car so I assume that their engine is still in the car. Could be wrong...

I don't know who does Zrust's stuff.

Did I miss anyone??

I heard that Howes had the Armstrongs do some work on the Westcott powerplant.

That's correct. Armstrong did put Howes' motor together but did so using Westcott components.

Dang! You know a lot for a girl. :D
