The Walker story itself was almost 3 full pages, including several photo`s including the head gaskets that Larry Walker modified by soldering thin wire to make a home brewed "O ring" head gasket for a Ford Y Block 312. Hopefully Walkers old "Legal Cheater" 57 Ford will be in action again next year, for the first time in about 35 years.
It'd be fun to watch it race!!!!
