One nice thing is that you don't have to spend a fortune on an engine to run good times with an FED, you are not pushing any weight. There was an econo-dragster class at one time, and I think the rules were you had to run a 350 max engine size, and they still ran good.

I bet if you stuck in one of those rare Olds, Cad, or Buick engines you have stored away, with just a good freshening up and some mild mods, you would have a fun little dragster there, and people would love it.

herself, it's probably Rod Stuckey, not Rob Stuckey. Rod Stuckey was a well known dragster driver/builder back in the 50's/60's. Click the below link for a brief history of one of his FED's that has been restored and can be seen at cacklefests.

Yeah, 4 engine Buicks. Matter of fact, there's suppose to be a clone coming out to "Ricky and Ronnies" this coming Friday. Don't know if Ivo did it, but I believe it's currently called the "WagonMaster". It has an Olds Vista Cruiser body on it.
