About The Author

Tony Thacker

After setting speed records on the salt flats and working for the legendary So-Cal Speed Shop and the NHRA Museum, Thacker wrapped up his professional career by opening an education museum in the Portland, Oregon, area called the World of Speed. However, he is far from being retired, as he continues to work as a consultant and on book projects, which were his first love.

Mike Herman works at the family business of H&H Flatheads in La Cresenta, California. He has rebuilt countless flatheads of many different specifications. He has a deep and abiding affinity for this storied power plant. He intimately knows the design, parts, and best products for the flathead. In addition, he has assisted Rod & Custom and Street Rodder magazines with several articles.
