I think he goes by "Tank" and possibly out of Va area.. I talked to him a few minutes at the Chrysler Classics but he was real busy.. I would love to get in contact with him on his combo, and parts.. Man that car gets it done for a large car. 8.60 8.70s in the heat..... That car is no lite weight either... Thanks Bob

I was there yesterday when he went a 8.73...that is by far the fastest car that he has owned..He has had some cool cars in the past...I went over to look under tha hood,but he never had it opened.. If I was to guess..it is probably a bigger cube hemi with a SS/AH top end..the Classic hemi cars do not have cubic inch limits..like NHRA events..I seen he had a extra Pro-flite in his trailer if he broke one ..still a very fast big body car..

Sure do!! Tank is a good guy
His name is Tank Crosswhite and his brother actually built the car. Its got a 605 Hemi built by FHO, and to tell you the truth it is probably the nicest hemi car i have ever seen. He used to own the 64 polara hemi car that is also running this weekend at the classic (has Walsh Fuel on the side of it now). He wanted to a 64 hemi belvedere and be able to run mid 8's and thats just what he did. Matter fact he ran an 8.61 yesterday. thats his fastest pass to date.

Tank and his brother have built several hemi "B" bodies...This one is a beautiful fast car..It is a 605 FHO motor, crossram with two 770 holleys. The neat part about this car is it has a bunch of suttle changes to the car that most people would ot even notice. The rear axle is moved forward, the front wheels are a little back so the wheel base is about 4" shorter. It is a four link and has Pro-trans..Horsepower is over 1100

He had a smoking deal on a top end set that was former SS equipment. I was very interested in the intake, but wasn't sure if he was interested in separation...

Im curious as well. This is very close comparison to one of our team cars also a 64 B-body FHO 605 HEMI 985 hp, 4 link car. How did Tank launch this car? Wheels up ?? Car weight, chassis set up, transbrake chip, shift points, timing, carbs set up...yeah Im wondering now just how different our set ups are being he has almost 7 tenths on us!! Heres a guy I'd like to spend the day with and pick his brain. Awesome car & ET's way to go Hank. Someone get him signed up here on moparts.

Yep, thats what I want to do as well. The car didnt pull large wheel stands, maybe a foot or so, just hooking, and a booking.... I have a video of the car pass, and a bunch of others, my computers DVD drive is having issue's.

Bob, Tank had a intake for sale today at his trailer. He buys and sells a lot. He has owned and sold a bunch of 64,65,67,68 Hemi cars. He also has been very involved in Jerry Epperson's 64 Super Stock Plymouths. He sometimes is in this area. If you need to talk to him I can get his number. He will try to run all the Classic events this year.

yea actually he did put 770's on it, all done up by BIGS. Firsy time this weekend After talking to him some more, he is only shifting that car at 6200 goin through at 6500. He says it has 8.40's in it real easy, but if any of you know tank he doesnt run his stuff very hard. On other note he has a buy into the semi's today
