Our new mill is built and ready to make some noise!

      


There's a ton of information to share, but we're going keep it simple for the time being. The image shown here is the fresh 598ci big-block build by Jason Pettis of Pettis Performance in Hesperia, California.

If you're familiar with our previous combination, then you'll know that it pushed Artis Houston's '71 Nova into the 7 second zone on a set of leafsprings and 275 Drag Radials. This time around, we've changed the entire combination, utilizing Edelbrock Victor 24's, a Hogan's Racing sheetmetal manifold, and a three stage nitrous system by Steve Johnson of Induction Solutions.

That's all we're saying for now, but be sure to check out the upcoming issues, as we'll be going through the entire build, reveal the dyno numbers, and see what this baby will do at the track!
