OK, since you all have heard me talk about the place I thought that it's high time you got to see some of the stuff that goes on behind the hallowed halls of the double secret skunk works in Arkadelphia Arkansas (I know...WHERE?????)

Here we are unloading Tony's FI bullit in the dissassembly room. That's Tony, with Dave and Kelly, two of the machinests at Kuntz & Co.

My guess on the dyno motor is "The 289 from hell". And i have actually been in Arkadelphia Arkansas.

Since Kuntz and Frye have hooked up Rob, they have not looked back. They put FoMoCo on the D.I.R.T. map.

You didn't trick me into anything Ccode.

Yes Hans, it just may very well be the new 289 from HELL!
We'll just have to see how it goes down the track.
What the heck were you doing in Arkadelphia anyway? Visiting KK or K&C?

Swing that school bus past here, i'm hopping on board and not just for the beer!

That looks like a cool place . Those exhaust ports in the Edelbrock FE head are HUGE, Pro Nostalgia car and a Galaxie too i'm guessing since not many others would benefit from that exhaust port.

By the way, we did get the wheels turning for a possible venture into NMRA Hot Street.

It's a VERY distinct possibility for 2004.

We are leaning towards a 363 inch deal to take advantage of the weight.
MM could (would) possibly be the lightest car in the class. A lot is still up in the air at this point, but we are talking about it.
Just an FYI

Alex, Thanks for the cool post with the photos. I guess you could call them the Ford House of Horsepower. They've been building record holding motors as long as I can remember. On your possible NMRA venture, will the car you use be your '89 convertible or something else??? Trouble is I think Beth will kick your butt if you do that to "her" car.......unless she gets to run it with the 362. Randy
