    Here's a hidden horsepower(s) for you, a certain popular pro stock driver, might be a fem, might be a male, injected frontloaded micro amounts of nitro into their 'hidden' horsepower machine, which we later learned could not be detected by NHRA teardown officials . How's that? Didn't hear anyone mention that on the podcast.

    Jason, I am a lifetime FE guy and Bill Fiest and his Mustang is a really great. The bump in class is unbelievable. I am old and not rich enough. But I love that old stuff. That car 45 years and still going strong.,FE stuff is dropping like flies as castings go. It’s definitely disappointing.,

    Jenkins lost a Vega , to the tank , somewhere in Ohio . It didn't have any holes but it was toooo fragile to work on . I don't actually remember how much of this information is first hand .

    • @rolandtamaccio3285
      @rolandtamaccio3285 17 днів тому

      Allright , Tom Pohorilla from SRD , helped my memory . There was a Vega body that set out back of SRD for quite awhile ; however it had some damage but had never been acid dipped . So , all the rest of this info I have was told to me by my co workers at Jenkins Competition , or Derrick , Steve , or Pete from next door at SRD . It probably was one or more and maybe even Bill himself I just can't remember who .

    Thank you guys once again for another great interview! I met Adam many moons ago, as a few family members are dirt racers. I hear updates once or twice a year and share in " pats on the back " to him for being one of the good young engine builders who support our racing endeavors! To add to the discussion on rings, seal, and piston rock... for the last two months we are running a combo of improvements in those combined areas on a couple of 410's, a 441sbc n/a, and three turbo engines ie: 4000hp+... ALL with a PVD coating we are developing, a new " barrel " boring CNC we built, which actually minimizes " rock " ( clearance is very small ), with one oil... and so far, for instance... the 410... gained 27hp... and 15° cooler on a 9600rpm run. The other engines scaled another 8 to 17% increase also... and we are pushing it as far as possible. We all didn't believe the spintron results 6 months ago... now we all believe... lol. Thank you guys for this platform, as we all enjoy it in the shop and lab! Respectfully, Seth

    Have had two Morel 5323 lifters fail. First one was bad from start up. Broke my pushrod guide plate, bent the pushrod and nicked my Harland Sharp roller lifter, had to be rebuilt by Harland Sharp. This hapened with less than 50 miles on professionally built motor. My engine builder replaced the parts for free luckily. The second one just collapsed with less than 1000 miles on it. It's always someone else fault when the Morels fail never their fault.

    I like BTR and Brian Tooley has done well with his business. Alot of people have turned to his products because others have had success using his parts. The man is very skilled in what he does. However calling BTR the camshaft king is a bit of a stretch. The real kings of performance aftermarket camshafts are those men who first began re-grinding camshafts before there was a performance aftermarket. Im talking Ed Winfield, Ed Iskenderian, Harvey Crane and others. I would even put Joe Lunati in that group. Brian is among these guys but not the king. Not trying to throw shade just makin' a point.
