Some big cube eye candy:

[RevXtreme 1]

Dropping a new experimental 582 Reher Morrison into the blue Top Dragster getting ready for the $million$ at Indy. The orange TD already runs high 6's in the 1/4, should put the blue one right there as well. Dynoed 1136 @7300.

This is one of David Rehers latest developmental engines so we can't tear it down to look inside, has to go back unzipped after were done.



Dropping in FTI's mac daddy glide & billet converter at the same time.

you know with a little cutting and hammering, we could have tested it in my car :yesnod:

Blue? Orange? Are they your cars Tracy? I thought FTI only built converters. Seems like nice people out there. :thumbsup:

Yeah, sure, but I'll bet gas mileage SUCKS with that thing..... :toetap05:

:lmao: Seriously, nice looking motor! Would it bolt right into my C5 Z06? How long would it take?

FTI builds the absolute quickest 4L60/4L80/6L80e converters, and tuff as nails glides for both dragsters & door cars.

Greg Samuel owns FTI & we have raced together forever.

The blue car is the one we last built for Emily 4 years ago, but it is now owned by Keen Racing. I still work on the dragsters for them. Jeff is the star driver, he runnered up in the million last year and the orange car is near identical to the blue one, but a year newer.

Emily is at Indy right now with Peter running the National event, and the Million is next weekend so Peter is staying with the team (Martel/Biondo) through to the million, but Emily has an exam on next Thursday so she has to fly back and won't be able to race the million.

On Alky, it uses 1 1/2-2 gallons a run (1/4 mile) and the fuel cell is 5 gal so we could get above 200mph in the first 6 seconds & coast quite away!

This one would be a little wild for the Z, but I have a 572 pump gar motor available for $10k (was $13k) brand new complete carb to pan that would be killer in a street car/hot rod!!

How long would it take? Hmmmm.......

Quite a few go-ponies in that piece of artwork!:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Hope it turns out to be bulletproof!

I met Greg at Bradenton and went out and talked to him at FTI but I decided not to go with a high stall converter. I figured I would only mess up a good thing. Consistency. I remember the blue car now that you said where it is. He won a bunch of money at Bradenton with that car.

They're going to have a lot of heavy hitters up there Tracy and I would like to see someone we know win that. Maybe Peter or Manny. Wish we could be there. Maybe Andy could float us a loan.
