Default Tom Langdons Hole Shot 6 Engine Pictures

Well I was asked about 5 years ago to mock up the engine on a stand and take some pictures. I finally got around to it. Because most of the engine (Less the Tri Power intake) are going on semi permanent loan to a good friend that whats to build a twin Turbo Race Motor and realises that that will take longer than this August to assemble & tune to put in the 57 Canadian Pontiac he recently bought. The Hole Shot 6 engine will be used to get the car sorted out and on the track for Norwalk next year.
The Engine is not as it was last raced in the Hole Shot 6, but as it was run on the street in Toms Bread Truck he used for his Engine Buisness Stovebolt Performance. It has less Cam, and the Tri Power runners are shortened my about half, the log Manifold actually wrapped over the top of the cam cover and the carbs and log manifold were on the passenger side of the engine when it was run in the race car. Also the Intake and Carbs were not water Heated as they are on the street version.
Notice the Custom HEI Dist. And the Upper end Oiling system taken directly off the Oil Pump outlet thru a Pressure regulator. The Internal oil passage is Blocked off. The engine is a 69 250 with a ZD code on the Block, Small Harmonic Balancer. Polished Cam Cover & 66 Belt Cover.
