HRR Pics and Vids

I'm such a loser for not making it out. Oh well, had to TCB. Thanks for all the pics, I can't wait to get home and fire up the hi-speed. Dial up ****s!

 

Damn fine pictures!! I felt like I was there. Thank you sir for a job well done.

 

Thanks for the pics Rich.

This kept me from having to make the drive, brave the heat, dodge the golf carts, & wade through what looks to be hundreds of cars that would fall into the "average old ****" category.

It was in a ragged gl*** model a roadster.

I overheard the owner say it was a 60's Ford racing engine, DOHC, 32V.

That is a mid `60's Indy Ford V8. It was the first engine to really challenge the Offy's. It was a development program by Ford begining with the `63 pushrod "Fairlane" V8 in the Lotus Fords and culminating with this dual overhead cam 4- valve aluminum V8 you see here. The kicker is if you pull those heads off essentially what you have is a small block Ford. The bottom end is basically what Ford used when they came out with the Boss 302 in `69.

I've seen picture of Mario Andretti, A.J. Foyt and Dan Gurney running these things in sprint cars on dirt. Jim Busby ran two in a top gas rail in the late `60's. I'm pretty sure A.J. bought up the tooling and continued with this engine under the "Coyote- Foyt" banner.
