    Getting back in to racing new FED

     



    Traded my Harley for a 185" FED. Still have to build a motor for it.

    That looks very cool burnout1969, good times to be had for sure. Have you ran a rail before? What kind of moter and tranny is in it now?

    I have not run a rail before so it should be fun. It has a powerglide in it and no motor so I am going to build a SBC to run.

    You will be surprised at the speed you can get out of a somewhat mild build motor from a 1300 - 1400 lb. car. Keep us posted on your progress, I am a dragsteraholic.
