Yup...still ford, but custom built. It's actually a small block, believe it or not. about 400 cubes. Pulls like a runaway train upstairs. It goes consistant 9.7's at 140 all motor. It always made an impressive MPH....60' usually in the 1.4's. They didn't go big on the gear (Only has a 3.90) He could have made it stand on the bumper every time and dip lower into the 60' but he sacraficed that so he could stay straight and consistant. That's the name of the game in bracket racing
