It's part of the Moser/Ford 9" rear axle assembly. It is massive. We don't run a front bar. Thanks for asking.

I've seen your posts in the past. Interesting combination.
What compression ratio? What octane fuel? Gasoline?

A well thought out engine build that makes a boat load of power is always a good thing. Adding the small amount of nitrous was a neat way of bumping up the power a couple of steps! Adding a 150 or 175 shot to you engine, pushes it over the edge. That amount of nitrous generally won't get you in trouble. A simple and smart
move. Of course any nitrous system needs to be properly done.

I wish P- Dude was still in business. He was such a good contributor to our side of the hobby.

Hello Trashcan: It is a good combo of parts working in harmony. I'm still running a P-Dude custom cam that gets everything in sync without being radical. Compression is about 12.75 and since I'm deathly afraid of detonation I run Renegade 116 racing fuel.

I was up at P-Dudes for his birthday. He's hanging in and fighting off the aches and pains all of us oldtimers have. Still full of piss and vinegar. He is easing into slow down mode. Ken had a large garage built on his property and is moving his machine shop and equipment into it. He'll still be building motors, just not at the pace of his youth. He fully expects to be back into racing soon as he has his F-Bird set up for 6.50 Index [1/8 mile]. We've been out at the track a couple of times and he is chompin' at the bit to go racing.

Thanks, Jim
