This thread is to inform all of you who need a mopar engine built or machine work. This is the go to guy in NY, Ct. NJ.
Vignogna Racing Engines. Jimmy rebuilt my 588 indy 572-13 motor and its faster than before.The numbers it made last sunday and yesterday were incredible.
Jimi went out of his way to get this engine perfectly built, spent time at his shop to put the light blue dodge on the lift and rework a few things.
I brought up the hemi and we did some mods to it too. His knowledge is exceptional and he goes the extra distance to make things right.
Thanks Jimi, car is flying.
 
Thats good to hear. I have always liked to watch their cool wheel standing cars run. Ron
 
That's great to hear, it's always good to know another great source... but what are the ET & MPH #'s now ?? what did it run & where ??, you can't put a post like that & not tell us... what a tease...LOL...
 
Of coarse he can. I have been waiting over a year to hear what that Black 65 runs

Thanks for the kind words Chris, I would not do it any other way!!!!!! All of you bb and hemi guys coming in have given me a little incentive to get going on my stuff as well!!!!! see you at the finish line................
 
jimi got me setup with largeer squirters for my 800 edelbrocks, jimi will get all my business. straight up guy with no bs.he gets the job done.
I don't need to call 15 times and not get an answer. I need something, it gets ordered. Going to bump up the compression and a new cam in the hemi over the winter.New bearings and rings too.And I bet it wont blow smoke either.
 
Another great day at V & V' racing engines shop.
Jimmy and I rebuilt 4 sets(8) of Carter and Edelbrock carbs.
There was a slight lag off the line and it was driving me nuts. Jimmy said come up and lets do each carb one by one.
Showed me tricks his dad Lou(RIP) and himself use of their super stock cars.
Well it worked. No more lag and it jumps right out again. Thanks again to a super great guy.
 
:iamwithstupid: Ok so what did it use to run ?? & what do you expect it to run now ?? SSR/Chris inquiring minds want to know, well me anyway... what all the secrecy about ?? Is this top secret build or something ??, sooner or latter someone will see it run {bobtile} & maybe post what the #'s are.... Is it still a hi-9's set-up, like from Pinks All Out a while back ??
 
I have no pride. I can be bought! Just sayin'....

Which car are you talking about. I have 4 race cars?
 
Sorry Yea that might help too, any & all of them, {the 588 572-13 you referenced, for one} any of the ones your praising Vignogna Racing for the builds, never post ET's or MPH very often... It's just my morbid curiosity, I'm not trying to bust your balls, I just want to know...

I'm not really sure which car your talking about, in the original post even, Black car ? or the Blue car ?, 604ci or 588ci or Big Bad Hemi Car, I doubt it's the white car, but I'm not sure what other racecar you have either... I know about those 3 very vaguely... I just like to know, it's the nature of the beast, especially when you talk about drag racecars, it's all about ET & MPH, good or bad... Thanks for you resonses

Thanks SSR, great information & very cool stuff, all fast cars... I hope all goes well with the Black Dodge too... White max wedge it seems quicker than I remember also... how do you decide which car to take to the track ??

Black dodge is fine, just wont say on here how fast. too many haters lurking, you catch my drift?

what ever car is not on the top lifts is how I pick which one.
The white max wedge is going to my son jr. in a few years. he'll be learning how to push buttons before shifting by hand.
