My name is Keith Cornell,I currently making my 32 3 window coupe SCTA legal,so I can run Bonneville this summer.I have run the Maxton Mile with best speed of 137,(with a 135 speed limit) due to lack of saftey equipment.The motor is a 321 stroker from John Mummert,along with G heads ported by John. Ted is building me a 500HP+ monster as I write this,which will be topped off with Mummert ported aluminum heads. So if any one out there makes it to the salt this august,look me up.

Keith, good to see you here, welcome. You'll have a tough hill to climb at Bonneville because of the class you're in but even if you don't set a record I'll bet your car will be faster than any Y-Block in a long, long time.

Outstanding Keith. It will be a miracle if all three of us are ready by Bonneville, but if we are, we should definitely pit together. Let's stay in touch. Pictures would be nice. Charlie

John, I dont plan on any record but You may be right about the fast thing. Charlie,I will look for your new project,I met Tim last year in the "Brick", as he was staged near us on the 3rd/ special course. Im also on a team that runs a XFGR (32 Ford). When I saw the Brick,I knew I had to check out the Y Block.Thats a great looking truck. I was afraid someone was going to ask for pictures,I still need to "learn" how to add them,I should probably ask my 10 year old!!!!!!!!! Keith

I did take the trip to their web site, that is an amazing bunch of cars. They should make the salt look like it did after world war II. Awsome!
