    Here's a little teaser...as best I can remember we had 5 Mavericks, a 65 Falcon and a 65 Mustang that made dyno pulls. There were 4 different size motors in these cars. Here's the breakdown:

    Ryan - 302
    Gene - 250 I6
    David - 289
    Michael - 302
    RobbieG - 302
    Richard (65 Mustang) - 200 I6
    Ryan's brother (65 Falcon) - 302?

    One of these motors was bone stock...all the others have been modified to various degrees. Min and Max hp for the day was 116 to 297...any guesses??? :burnout:

    P.S. RobbieG's 72 Sprint was bone stock.

    Maybe it is just you, or maybe because its parked backwards. :huh: :rofl2:

    But if we would have put it on the dyno it would have been a fight for the top spot of the day.

    Doesnt that car belong to Roxie? I didnt look under the hood but just from listening to her I would bet youre right.

    AAND it has an Edelbrock.

    Ya its her's. Has a pretty big cam and some good heads. I think it was close to 300hp at the wheels also.

    Sure thing, guys. x2 for Gene. Sorry I couldn't get them uploaded sooner. I had already sent them to Gene before I read the "restart the browser" post.

    Thanks, Ryan for setting up the whole shebang. It was a great experience. Cool cars. Good people.

    I've set myself a goal of 1 year to complete my car, so, maybe I'll be able to spin the drums with everyone else at the next one.

    Eric

    I was sad to see my stock 72 Sprint with a whopping 116 HP was the lowest HP car of the day...LOL:)
