jgkurz Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) I flew to Michigan to spend some time with family last week and to attend Ford Fest 2011 at Milan Dragstrip. The day of the event on Saturday was a bust due to weather but Sunday was great and near sea level altitude density. My dad ran a personal best of 9.18 at 146mph on all engine. Not bad for a car without wheel tubs on 10.5" slicks and full interior. The engine is an aluminum 427 side-oiler stroked to 502ci with a single Holley Dominator 4barrel. On a 9.20 dial he ran a 9.22 and lost to a guy that ran exactly his dial-in. Oh well. Still had a ton of fun. Enjoy the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNsTaoyIzyc Edited October 4, 2011 by jgkurz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgkurz Posted October 5, 2011 Author Share Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Wonderful cars must run in the family. Thanks guys. My Dad worked for Ford for 40yrs in Michigan and just retired so he has never been too excited about my affinity for the Datsun Z. I might compromise and put a boosted stoker 351W in my Z someday and start making some serious HP. Edited October 5, 2011 by jgkurz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
