This pickup mounted on the rear of the MSD distributor was designed and built by SAR shop Foreman Tom Kidd. What it does is tell the fuel injection when the number one cylinder is going to be the next to fire.

Valve covers are pulled off after about five pulls to check the valve lash. In the 12 pulls we witnessed they never adjust the valves once. The valve train is from T & D and Sonny says it is extremely dependable.

Troy Coughlin's crew chief on this effort is (foreground) seen here talking to dyno-cell and shop foreman, Tom Kidd, after running the four twos-injector set-up.
