It's amazing what a little time, elbow grease and Dupli-Color paint can do. My kids and I spent the better part of yesterday getting the engine ready to drop in the Elky. The engine itself was already built, but man, did it need some help in the looks department. Nothing worse than someone asking to see your engine and it looks like this.....

Ugly! It's nothing special really. Just a stock 305 cubic inch rebuild with what sounds like a HUGE! camshaft. We don't expect to be a track monster with that little engine. But that's cool. The Elky is going to be our "Saturday Cruse In" Hot Rod. You can say it is now retired from it's track duties. This is how the egine looks now, thanks to help from Deleon Auto Accessories, The Speed Center and my buddy Abel, at Oreilly Auto Parts.

Guy's, when you are working on your Hot Rod, give our sponsors your business. If it was not for them, Texasdragracing would not be possible. And don't forget, always mention to them that you saw there ad on Texasdragracing.com. Stay tuned for an update later today. We are hoping to fire it up before 5:00pm tonight. Adios...
