Engine Pro has once again orchestrated with DART Machinery and Performance Engineering to offer a brand new 565 cubic inch Big Block Chevy engine that will be given away at the 6^th Annual Funny Car Nationals on September 11, 2010 to one lucky racer.  This is the third consecutive year a racing engine will be awarded to a racer at US 131 Motorsports Park from these sponsors.

“To have this commitment from our sponsors in offering this fantastic prize, eligible to many racers is truly a blessing,” said US 131’s Marketing Director Stephanie Peterson.  Peterson continued, “This is just another reason why racers come to US 131 Motorsports Park to compete.”

 DART Machinery has generously supplied the block, CNC heads and the manifold for this brand new engine.  Performance Engineering of Jenison, MI will once again assemble this racing engine valued at approximately $20,000.  The engine is complete with the exception of the fuel or ignition systems.

Many loyal sponsors are contributing high tech parts for this engine as they have for the two previous engines put together by Engine Pro and US 131.  Included are Melling Performance’s billet oil pump, JE Pistons, Hastings Racing performance piston rings, Oliver billet performance connecting rods, ARP fasteners, Ferrea performance valves and Comp Cams valve train products, SCAT performance crankshaft, Mahle-Clevite engine bearings, Victor Reinz performance gaskets and Stef’s Performance’s B&B Performance line.  Pro Finish Powder Coating will be powder coating parts of the engine and offering a $250 gift certificate to a racer who does not win the engine.  

To determine eligibility each racer must enter into the track’s bracket racing series in either the Top ET or Modified class.  The winner will be determined by taking the top 10 racers in point standings in each class at the conclusion of the points race prior to the Funny Car Nationals.  All qualified racers will have their names placed in a box and the names will be drawn until only one name is left, the winner. 

Past winners are Dennis Geeting of Muskegon, MI in 2008 and last year’s winner Justin Wanamaker of Kalamazoo, MI.
