Comments: | Wow, an honest to goodness authentic 494!.... At least that's what the hood says.... Hey, you don't suppose somebody was trying to pull a fast one on us here do you... Looks like a little psychological pitside strategy... Well whatever was really under the hood, it was probably real fast and at this point, real clean! |

01/01/04 | 3-Wide | I heard that Bobby Thomas from IROC knows how they came up with a 494 back in those days" - maybe he'll write and tell us the story. |
02/10/04 | Jerry | I remember Jim having 494 on a few of his hoods. Wasn't he sponsered by Mullaney Tires for years along with Jack Ely who also ran Wall? |
