Taking some big cuts on the decks and intake faces of these APD9’s to suit them to some 485ci truck pulling action! This set is headed out West to one of our engine builder customers, and will be paired with our steel rocker kit in 1.85/ 1.85 ratio sporting a DLC tip upgrade. We can’t wait to hear these things scream at 9000+RPM on the dyno!!

Congrats Rick Huffman on winning the Super Street Wally in Norwalk. He made the long haul from Texas and put his Camaro in 2 finals and came out holding the last Wally!

The old man spent his birthday and Father’s Day at Summit Motorsports Park at the D3 double divisional.

Ending the week with a redemption win in race 2 after losing in the final of race 1. He and mom have some r&r planned for this week before getting back to it for the national event.

He bought this car with 1 goal, race and win in Super Street. And he is doing that!
