Leverage Ingenuity for Competitive Advantage

forever when did you switch to Ford uh 92 92 yeah they were they were doing you know we're running ponx and getting our butts beat by Fords and uh I said well you know we got to get more competitive and was fortunate uh uh that Ernie Ellet would sell us parts and I think we've converted some ronac to Fords and Ford was good enough that we got some sheet metal from them and it was definitely the way to go cuz they just drove better better better arrow and you can make good power out of the engine out out of Ed stuff so it was a good move like a a handful of places switched from GM to Ford back when the the C3 head got hot cuz you could have the the caned valves versus them all in a row yeah did you have any C3 heads sitting around here I just saw the blocks I didn't see any heads I got you got a few couple I got that's no that's d3s that's those are C's but that's a d heads those are brand new I got a couple sets of C's or one set of C's anyway yeah that's interesting got 1997 C3 2007 D3 you got these ones all epoxied up there must have been a restrictor engine back then I you really do have the whole setup back here were these Dino rooms or one of them built them just for assembly rooms huh so and you know they haven't had whole lot of use the last few years but uh uh I have a guy in queny Illinois named uh uh Steve Nelson that does a lot of engine work for me and uh he does a lot of engines I do a few of them but he does a lot of them Triple R Performance and does a great job for us at least you're equipped here to kind of fix things instead of we can do it you don't have to rely on other other people Dino eventually ended up there is this the same dyo that you originally had in the front of the building and got moved back here it is it's it's uh like I said it's been moved two or three times and uh
