He was a super cool dude. He broke his arm about 20 years ago. Was out of work and money. Had listed a set of 16s on Craigslist for $350. I jumped in the truck and drove like hell from Lubbock to Wichita Falls. They were the most beautifully ported iron heads I’d ever seen. Gave me the grand tour. Saw the white and orange GTOs. The round light red Firebird in his back yard. All the parts and projects. Dude had it going on. Hated to see him go. So I thought I’d run the 16s as a tribute in one last high compression ion iron head build. She came in at 10.66/1, was a bear to tune but, happily screams on 93 octane @ 36°. Quint did me righteous.
