Dallas Theobald of H&S Motorsports has his Industrial Injection-built race engine up for grabs. The internally-balanced Cummins utilizes a 6.7L block, a main girdle with ARP main studs, Carrillo rods, valve relieved Mahle pistons with ceramic coating, and a race cam. Up top, a fire-ringed head with race porting, oversized valves, HD valve springs, and saddled with a ZZ Fabrication intake is cinched down via ARP Custom Age 625+ head studs. For an engine that’s basically ready to handle anything you throw at it, the $17,000 asking price is a steal.

Available as a rolling chassis, the clean title OBS has run countless 6-second eighth-miles in the past, cut 1.3-second 60-foots under 7.3L power, and would make a great 6.70 Index truck. The race-ready roller includes a 10.25 rear axle with 3.54 gears and a spool, a Dana 60 up front with a Lock-Right, a 6-point roll cage, Crow 5-point harness, a full aluminum dash, ARC switch panel, B&M Stealth Shifter, a Nitrous Express billet dual bottle bracket with two blow-down tubes, and a whole host of other add-ons. Patrick has the truck listed for sale for $5,500 OBO and is open to trades.

Built to run the 9,500-pound Pro Farm class, the old IH has just 10-12 passes on a fresh engine—an engine that is also intercooled—along with a new transmission. The 1066 sells with brand-new TUI Legacy 20.8 x 38-inch double cut tires, sports a full air-ride front end, and even makes use of a folding hood on factory sheet metal. If you want to come out swinging in Pro Farm in 2020, this is your ticket to the front.

In addition to hauling more dirt in for the 350-foot pulling track, Wagler Motorsports Park is being graced with more spectator seating, more campsites, and electric hookups this offseason. Drag racing will take place on Wagler’s all-concrete, NHRA-member eighth-mile drag strip just a few steps from the pulling track. Attendance is expected to crest 8,000 when the Scheid Diesel Extravaganza rolls through Lyons, Indiana next August.
