Ran into this at Englishtown a few years ago

At the Shakedown at E-Town a few years ago walking around the pits I ran into this Back Half Mark VIII Shakedown at E-town sitting in the pits. Unfortunately I didn’t get to see it make any runs as I was stuck in the pits with my friends Lemans.

Also would have liked to get to talk to the owner and get some decent info on the car at that point in time. Something like what times it was pulling or what engine it was running at the time too?

Would have loved if it was a M.O.D. engine but, at that point in time the Modulars weren’t being built up that much. Don’t think anyone had any Carburetor intakes for them at the time either or camshafts? Not to mention it wouldn’t be making any Horsepower without Boost in the form of a Turbo or Centrifugal Supercharger of some sorts.

I think I remember it have SVO stickers on it somewhere at the time. So who knows what it could have been running on that day?
