       As I recall it's injected. It's a Dragmaster similar to mine. A couple 
of years ago the Dragmaster was the featured marque at the Bakersfield Calif. 
Hot Rod Reunion  and Jim Nelson (owner of Dragmaster along with Dode Martin) 
was either the Grand Marshall or one of the honored personalities. Jim tried 
to get all the Dragmasters he could for a display at the Reunion. I believe 
that the Mooneyes car and mine were the only running examples (mine's a 
replica, since the original ones wouldn't pass NHRA certification for 9.99 
and quicker passes).
       I fired-up to make an exhibition pass and the torque converter picked 
that moment to fail. So much for the weekend...............Ardun Doug King
