Using a Smeding 427-cubic-inch small-block-Chevy, Brian Basquez of Sacramento, California won the 2010 Street Rod Shootout sponsored by the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association. Brian smoked his slicks through round after round in his black '32 Ford highboy, amidst some ferocious competition at Beech Bend Raceway Park in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
In the final round, Brian's Smeding Performance powerplant brought home the gold as he hit a 7.25-second 1/8th at 86.92 (his best run so far has been 6.85 at 103.41 mph), and this is no ringer, it's a genuine street rod. For racing or cruising, a quality Smeding Performance engine won't let you down.
Nicknamed the Mighty Mouse at Smeding, the 427 features the best of new aftermarket components, a three-year warranty, and delivers 540 hp and 550 lbs-ft.
