Joe Boghosian has been building high-end race and street motors for decades. Built Andretti's four-cam that won Indy in 69, has kept Dick Smith up to his eyeballs in 427 FEs, AA/Fueler-Funny Car-Drag Boat motors (Whisky River is his nephew's), sprint car and modifieds motors, flatheads, Offys, etc. Many of his "little secrets" under my hood.

Shelby Block--cleaned up, extra work on the oil journals, etc. Edelbrock heads REALLY reworked by Joe--sticking your fingers in the holes almost felt nasty. 4.250 crank by Joe Velasco. I need to get the final cam (roller) specs from him, but a lot of lift doesn't scare him for the street. 850 Holly--cleaned up a bit. MSD 6AL and all the other normal good stuff. He did everything he could to insure it would run cool during the hot Fresno summer, and all indications are that he has succeeded.

It is well matched to one of David Kee's toploaders (big in/out) and 3.31s out back.
