Herb, Butch Leal, Ronnie Sox and several other early Mopar sponsored Pro Stock racers(that I can't think of now realcrazy ) were the best at helping any other Mopar racer at a race they were racing at.
Got help on my old hemi stocker class car more than once from one of them at the races bow up


Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

Herb is great , he took the time to help me out when I was 17 and knew nothing about Mopars and the internet was not really a thing . He sold me the mounts and oil pan I needed to do a big block swap on my first car.
