I had a PM about "Mr Dirt" aka Brett Kepner, loved the articles and when I bought my mustang I went to the ford dealership with the "gt drivetrain in a lx body" part numbers. (mean mr dirt mustang)They wouldn't sell me what I wanted so being a dummy I bought a loaded GT instead. Still have it 27 years later though...

Loved his "Giant Killer" article in the Jan '94 issue of SS&DI and the article on racing a rental "rentals in the real world" in the Aug 2000 issue of Drag Racing USA which was a spin off of Bracket Racing USA. (which was my all time favorite mag, even more than SS&DI)
Trying to upload the pages like Alan but this POS scanner I got isn't working, dang it.
Modified Mustangs & Fords magazine will be featuring the build up of my Super Stock 1967 Fairlane. The first story was about the fuel tank and battery box install. We are behind schedule but they plan on having a lot of tech articles in up coming months. So if you want to follow along with the build and track testing subscribe to Modified Mustangs & Fords or pick it up at your local newsstand.

And -1.041 would not even QUALIFY at some of the recent past US Nationals field (adjusting for a current -.741). 2004 (-1.051) and 2013 (-.78 and change/-1.08 under the old Index) come to mind.
