Yes, That's all true. But we've already had a couple of posts about his cars.

Here are the links.

We'll look a lot deeper into the GT cars, later.

We looked at quite a few '74 Birds. Right now, I can't think of a single '75 or '76 SS Bird. But, there have been quite a few '77 & '78 SS Birds.

The quickest '77 I've ever heard of is now raced by Mike Morgan. And it uses the low compression 350 engine, with 6X heads. He gives credit to Parsons & Myers for the engine's power. They have built some quick Pontiac engines, for Stock & SS.

I know Mike won his class at Indy one year. And, Bill Rink & Mike got winner/RU in class there. An all Pontiac 350 powered SS class final is really cool to me.

Anyhow, I'll look up some of his best results, & post 'em.

For the cars quick enuff to make the field, Indy is a good measure of a car's performance. So, lets look at what Mike has done there.

In 2015, he ran .920 under, for the #41 position. He was higher on the list than Bill Rink, Peter Biondo, & Scott Burton.

He was also RU in SS/MA. Bill Rink won SS/LA.

In 2016, he went 1.006 under, for the #47 position.

He also won the SS/MA class.

In 2017, he went 1.098 under, for #23 position. Had a good shot at the class win, but left .006 too soon in the 1st round.

In 2018, he went 1.233 under, for #11 position. 10.617 is pretty quick for a 350 Pontiac.

For class, he had the field covered.

BUT, in the final, against Bill Rink, he played it a little too safe, cut a REALLY bad light, & lost.

In 2019, he slowed a little, but still went 1.126 under, for #22 position.

Left too soon in the class final & had to settle for RU to Bill Rink, again.

Read somewhere that he'd turned some 10.40's. Will see if I can find that info.

OK, in the 3rd round of this race, he ran a 10.414, to beat Bill Rink's 10.555, in a heads-up SS/LA 3rd round match-up.

Don't know what his best ET has been. But 10.40's from a low CR Pontiac 350, in a legal weight '77 Bird, sounds pretty darn good, to me !

These 2 Pontiac 350 powered cars are very competitive.

Sal originally built that car in a tiny one car garage in Bridgeport, Ct. Did the chassis himself. He was a sharp dude, who put together a Chevy powered Top Fuel dragster for himself, before the Super Stocker.
