A week from today I pick up a new toy

Been wanting to try one of these for at least 6-7 years now

Big class out here often 30-40 cars.

Also think it will reinvigorate me towards racing. Learning something new and more enthusiasm to learn/race

Boy I’m going to be slow for a while

Ivey is the hot ticket

This car has the Ivey upgraded carb kit

And a fresh engine with only two events on it
But not built by Ivey
Built by own race mechanic of 25 years, so I totally trust the builder
He has a flow bench and did a comparison test of FF heads a few years back with heads from 4/5 different manufacturers…. Figured a few tricks out himself

The Ivey folks are great. They've coached me through a number of Weber issues and have a vast collection of parts (Weber)

Those little Ford Four bangers aren't rocket science. There aren't many secrets other than attention to detail. Have fun with it. I'd love to drive one but I doubt I'd fit (6'4")...
