They have 500 inch chevy's in them sorry to hurt your feelings, lol these are all powered by Frank's motors, Elite maintains them sometimes, Mexicans have a shop very close to Elite's shop and they are good people.

My Mopar feelings aren't hurt, just curious. Pro Stock is a joke. At least Alan Prusiensky has a HEMI under the hood of his Dart.

Sometimes...

As far as being competitive, if you go back to the first year of Fuel Injection, Roy & Allen were doing just fine...car went as fast as 6.54 that year, and qualified in the top half numerous times. No reason why the "Ford" couldn't run right there with them, since the Ford stuff was copies of what was already available to other manufacturers.

They were competitive until NHRA put the 10,500 rpm limit

The fuel injection and rpm limit both came about in 2016. I stand by my statement.

Frank, I don't know if he still has it; but he certainly hasn't run it in several years.

The last post on Charlie's YouTube about anything PS Ford was 5 years ago.

Cam tunnel was to high in block and pan rail was to narrow!

Ford had DRCE style heads or Mopar style heads available. Engine builders could choose to use either one.
