I am making progress on the Hemi. Just got my Blower back from Gene Mooneyham last weekend. I'm just getting all the pullies set up on it. I still need to get pistons rods and a tranny adapter. Then I'm ready to run. In the mean time of looking for an 8 carb intake for the blower I picked up an 8 carb drag star that used to run on Big daddy Garlits Swamp Rat 1. I'm getting so close I'm still pushing to runb the blower. Just got to see if I can get this shoe horned into my coupe. Aaron SAVAGE

That looks bad ass, but does it say "Fear This" on the oil pan?

here is a shot of my 8 carb intake. It took a while to find but to top it off it came from Don Garlits Swamp Rat.

Dude, that is funny, I bought one of those manifolds six years ago and the guy told me the same thing. Don Garlits must of had a couple of them. I heard Gene Mooneyham sold his business to the Western Rock guys? I used to work there it was pretty fun working with those old timers.

I'm pretty sure its from Don Garlits since I talked to him and he mailed it to me. Unless someone is using his name.. I acatually bought 2 intakes from him. So I'm sure he had a few intakes in his day.
Don't know who the western rock guys are.. Gene Mooneyham is a cool old guy. Must have been fun working with them. Jimmy are you going to be at march meet? I need a pair of header flanges.
