>> I have heard of Keith Black Motors, but who is Ed Pink elephant Motors?
Oh Grasshopper, he was Mr. Hemi back in the day ('60s & '70s). Between him
and Keith Black they built the most legendary nitro motors of the era. Perhaps
some of his clientele -- Don "The Snake" Prudhomme, Tom "The Mongoose"
McEwen, Ed McCulloch -- might set off a few mental christmas-tree lights ;-)
Ed Pink still has his operation going in Van Nuys, but not building Chrysler
Hemis any more, alas.
I always thought the "Ed Pink Elephant Motor" by virtue of its name should've
been an alcohol burner. But noooooooo.
