Toyo Tires Ford Nationals - Nothing But Sun Shine
Another classic Ford racer we spotted giving it his all was Butch Falor with his '66 Fairlane. Butch's 'Lane uses good, old-fashioned cubes for motivation-496 of them to be exact-in a 460 block. Topped with aluminum Cobra Jet heads and a whopping 14:1 compression ratio, his yellow screamer makes 10.20 passes at over 130 mph when he puts it to the floor. It's no surprise that his drivetrain setup is similar to Brian Nap's, since Brian has helped Butch with the build. A 9-inch Moser spool with 4.56 gears and Moser 35-spline axles are out back, while a C4 trans sporting a 10-inch, 4,500-rpm stall converter is in the tunnel shuttling power rearward.
