Nice 
My money is on the golf cart.
With today's arrival of the aluminum block 426 gen 3 Hemi, I don't think I would put any money on the golf cart 
I don't know. If you put a hayabusa engine it could be interesting. LOL
Any chance of spilling the info on engines?
Thanks for sharing.

Casey - Last job I had was thinking of good things to say about you on the P.A. system at Monster Mopar! lol
I am currently the shop assistant to Mr. Kevin Helms who is the Race Shop Manager/Race Driver (previous 3 time NHRA National Stock Champion)for Mr Jeff Teuton's Southland Dodge Race team in Houma Louisiana.
But I will see you again in Norwalk Sept. 13-15.

Yesterday the 426 aluminum motor showed up by truck. By end of day today it had 16 hard pulls on the dyno for break-in a tuning. Now waiting to be told which car to install it in. (likely the Blue one!).  Todays job (after putting the 426 on the dyno) was removing a 800hp Indy 500cid motor from a 65 Plymouth to make room for a Hemi stocker motor.  Anyone need a LeBaron S/G car?  A little more shop candy - The "large" machine room.  Ryan, if you show up at US Nationals in INDY in Wed., I can make that photo shoot happen!
