Anyone see this? I agree that it looks like mild steel, basically making it worthless as far as running it goes, but check out that mill! More importantly, the injector setup. Anyone know much about it, or do you think it's a custom deal? It also says it's possibly a Kellison kit car. Anyone know anything about these? I've never heard that name before.

Kellison Kit Cars and front motored dragsters do not compute!

WTH is the seller talking about?

**John Denich** · 09-14-2007, 10:27 PM

The shop looks good though some interesting cars in there!!!!!

independentcustoms · 09-14-2007, 10:44 PM

The seller told me that the intake is a set of dual port injectors and a home made triangle mounting plenum

Damn, complete frame and body, torsion bar, axle, third member, etc for only 650 bucks what a fuckin deal. I am not sure if it's the same car or not, as the kits seem to offered in 150 and 135 in wheel bases, and the car on ebay is 142 (supposedly). Also, if it is that kit, it must be chromemoly, cuz the car is so light. Thanks Kiwi Kev

The frame may or may not be Kellison....but the body certainly is. It's what I had on mine.

Huh, didn't know Hilborn (or anybody else) made a two port injector.

Yes - they made one for both the 4-71 as well as th 6-71. Here is one on EBay right now --- would buy it if I needed another injector

Yeah, I looked it over pretty good. There's a the nose of a vega funny car poking out in one pic, and a ton of cool shit. He told me he was a collector

The cage and body look like Kellison but the front end stuff looks Fuller.

The 2 port Hilborn was out of production for may years, but they are making them again. A couple of years ago, they made 3-4 of them to be used on a car that was for a movie about the salt. After filming, they had one left and I bought it for my '33. They decided to bring them back into production and they can be bought new again. They are the perfect size for a 4-71 blower. ( see avitar)
