I saw Wallys time slips from last saturday at Union Grove Wis. They were a 12:05, 11:94, 11:85 and a pair of 11:83`s. He did a jet change that his engine liked. He ran over 114 mph. Outstanding, (I thought). Had to share this with you guys.

Greg. Thanks for posting. Wally has that ’56 really running strong. The performance out of that full bodied and full interiored ’56 Ford Mainline has to be really surprising the competition. Here’s a picture of the car at Columbus in 2011. Thanks goes to Tony Paz for this particular pic.

Need? We don't need no stinking superchargers. We just like engines that whir and wheeze! Chuck
Y's guys rule! Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

I wonder what vic Edelbrock would have to say about that?

Nuthin' like a white haired guy rowing a 4 speed into the 11s. Nice job Wally. Beautiful restoration on the 56. I'm beginning to believe you're a decent mechanic too!
