Hey Joe, I got some different books here you would have to read, the person who owned the Tunnel Port TA Mustang I found had worked for Ford and Team Shelby, he was also a thief who made off with whatever he could carry. I have thousands of pages of documents from Ford, inter office letters and memos, much of it having to do with the Ford racing program, Chevrolets high performance dealer programs and Fords lack of, attemps by Mickey Thompson to team with Ford in which in finally told Henry Jr to screw himself, and letters between Fords head of racing Jacque Passino to the powers that be indicating his displeasure with Smokey and Bunkie for playing both sides of the fence. So Joe, put away the high school books and dive into some college material.

Sounds interesting- I would love to read it. Do you have anything on Grady Davis? He was Don Yenko's Corvette racing buddy and VP at Gulf Oil. They sponsored Don and Dick Thompsons championship winning Corvettes until the blow up with Chevy in 1963. Gulf wanted to win LeMans. Chevy wouldn't play the game so Gulf took their money to Ford and made history.

This guy's auction lists the part # for the top as the hemi head crossram top, but the base looks to be an experimental base with the strange snowflake and no casting #. The base is just the normal 302 base so his auction is a little misleading in that it sounds like the intake will bolt onto a hemi head engine. He does say that it won't at the end of his description, but most people don't read that far.

I dunno, If I were going to bid 10 large, or more, I think I'd read the whole ad, maybe half a dozen times.

I saw a silver HEMI Z at the Chicago vette fest. It had some goofy Hemi stickers on the car.
