I know of one but if you can get an appointment with him, then maybe you could put a good word in to get me an appointment as well… I’m currently waiting in line.. He stays slammed with builds. Chris Hogeland. Twisted 6 Racing. He’s very good at making big power but very busy.

For the old timers still here....
There was a member from Memphis that I think, worked at RHS, Comp Cams?
I can't recall his name.
Old guys?????

You are correct, there was a guy from CC that lived around Memphis and did some side work on GNs. I’ll figure it out and post.

Maybe give a shout out to Dusty Bradford?

In addition to Greg (MeanBuicks) and me, I know of several other GNs in the Memphis area. I see Phillip Freeman at the track occasionally with a couple of other GN guys whose names I can't recall. Unfortunately, I don't think any of them post on this board.

Greg Friend is his name.

Speaking of hard to find people and parts Chuck.. Do you know where to find any main caps for a 153 4.1 stage 2 block? There is a 153 casting on center block for sale out there but no main caps with it. I figure worst case is get the original specs and have some machined but there has to be a few sets out there somewhere. I’m not buying the block, just trying to help locate the main caps. I know TA sells some but not sure how their specs would match up to the old 153 castings.

May be that some of the TSO guys might have some, being most have sawed a couple blocks into many pieces.
Dave Fiscus, Bison, Jack Cotton, Twisted 6 Racing, et al.

I believe he passed away sadly, seemed like a real gentleman.
