Newberns Drag and Drive Fox-body Mustang is cool, but the previous engine combo just didnt work out as well as he had hoped, so it was time for some newfound power from HED. HED stands for Harrell Engine and Dyno, and its home to horsepower in the Mooresville North Carolina area. Hes also neighbors with several other cool spots, including Custom by Bigun, where Newbern and Finnegan visited regularly. Hes not getting a complete HED powerplant, but hes got a pretty special shortblock and parts just like another famed Fox body runs.
