I think he started out as a machinist for Stage 5. I know he had those heads on his Dart. His Dart was in a Mopar Action Tech Edition back in the late 90's. It was an original 273 HP car. I think. He's been around, an asset to the community for a long time.

He's one of those guys that despite never meeting him and only seeing on TV shows, you still feel like you know him well like a friend.

that's the way he strikes me as well.

"Everything is mold around here"

Very telling IMO.

mold is something we should all be very careful being around.
it can cause many different kinds of ailments, some deadly.

I made the comment because I had a friend a decade back pass away from fungi encephalitis, which they discovered way too late, as the treatment is much different from bacterial or viral.

I did meet Steve once...at the Mopar display setup at the Woodward Cruise.
That was probably close to 20 years ago. Super nice down to earth guy. Just a regular car person is how
he strikes me. No ego whatsoever. I wish him well 🙏

I met him at Carlisle one year when he was doing Mopar trivia at the factory display. Nice guy.
