God bless guys like Jack Roush and Carroll Shelby and grumpy Jenkins don gartlits just to name a few id love to sit with all those guys I could listen to their stories for days
so glad i found and subscribed to your channel. I'm 61 and eat sleep breath FORD never owned anything else and never will ! I grew up about 1 1/2 mi from Detroit dragway was so close that i could hear the announcer but he sounded like Charlie Brown's teacher. think the first time I went was 1972 and was hooked for ever till 1996 when they closed. Always loved Jack, Glidden, Dyno Don. Sure wish FORDS could be in prostock now. My father and I both worked at DST which did a lot of race stuff including off road, Indy and cup but most well known for working on Thunderbolts. Love your videos !!!! keep Em Coming .
Watched and Loved Pro Stock back in those Days , Senior in High School Always Reading any Magazines I could get my hands on, this is Filling in the Blanks, awesome Videos, by the way Growing up in Carson California and Lions Drag Strip anytime I could get my Dad To Take me and watching these Guys come up with WAY out New things are days that will never be Again. Love Listening to these Stories! Keep em Coming!
What a legend, thank you for the story Mr Roush. these old cats (no pun intended) are disappearing and if we only knew half of what they have forgotten we can make some hellatious cars. And they built these motors and tuned these chassis without electronics without laptops and they will still run with all the new ones.
I met Jack at an aviation event many years ago. He can expertly talk about airplanes as much as cars. I loved this era of Pro Stock. That Mustang II is high tech for its time.
That is a cool interview. One of the REAL gurus on engines and all things automotive. Jack just was not your time to go in that fish pond near Troy. Glad u made it out.
Gapp and Roush along with Bob Glidden were giving em hell during this era. They had that Cleveland figured out. That Ford power had everyone beat back then.
I recall a 1975 Motor Trend article on Jack and a Mustang II that was apparently built for “street.” The article quoted him as saying three guys who want to run use dual quads, but the guy who want to run fast stick with a single. 4V. I don’t remember if the car in the article had a 351 or a big block.
The guys behind designing and engineering 351C heads. I sure would like to hear that story. Ford wasn't taking Any shorts in the 60's a decade of the Greatest Ford engines ever built for racing. 427 tunnel Port,, SOHC, Boss 429 and the Cleveland.. WoW 🤯
You know the old saying, liar's figure but figures don't lie. The Cleveland had an 8 degree valve angle, a big block Chevy 23. Ingition timing being negative work GM motors ran something like 42 or so degrees based on their design which effectively tries to stop the pistons upward travel. Long story long today's pro stock motors have a valve angle around 8 degree's. Roush was brilliant without question but the Cleveland was a way better design.

Love seeing this car restored. Definitely a fan!

Awesome content. Keep it up. Love all this Ford nostalgia stuff. (And the new nostalgia of the 80’s/90’s ).
AMAZING GUY and Evan ain't to bad. Love the channel brother.
Thank you!
What an awesome video! It’s nice to see history that matters not get criticized..
That is a cool interview. One of the REAL gurus on engines and all things automotive. Jack just was not your time to go in that fish pond near Troy. Glad u made it out.
So cool to see that this awesome piece of racing history is being well taken care of. This car gave me a lot of inspiration for modifying my 77.
Thanks Jack! I love these stories.
Old school I always great!!
Great story you will never forget for a long time .
Great video!! It was nice meeting you at Roadkill Nights!!
Likewise!

Got to see Jack at Don Garlits Drag Race Museum in March 2005 during the Daytona 500.
Thanks
Awsome car
Jack please write a book about your racing and life- so interesting!
Looks like a blast to drive.
having the suspension front connectors and the U-joint pivot point is a well know method, design for forward bite!
Love to hear and see FORD DRAG HISTORY AND LEGENDS ,MY FIRST CAR I BOUGHT WAS A 1974 MUSTANG II V6 ,I WORKEXD ON THAT CAR AND SURPRISED MANY V8'S😂
If would interesting to calculate the instant center of the rear end with those long ladder bars.
The Cat in the hat! Long live JR!
Love to hear old people histories
The Gapp/Roush 427 4 door Maverick is a pro-stock legend.
Indeed it is, Gapp, however not Gabb.
