Anthony's engine was built by PY's very own Richie Hoffman.

The engine has a 4.25 stroke crankshaft. I believe that's a typo in Steve C's post.

The engine info came from the SD Performance link.

I have no clue if it is accurate or a old combo.

I thought that was one of Richie's engines as well.

Believe the f.a.s.t series cars leaders are mid 9s with Tiemanns 68 bird best of 9.99.

I think the Tiemann/Mahoney 68 Firebird may have went a little faster than 9.99
