Default Re: Joe Mondello Passes

True, most everyone knows of Joe with Oldsmobile, but Joe knew heads and airflow about as good as anyone!!!!!

Look on the old Swamp Rats-- Heads by Mondello
Stone Woods and Cook--- Heads by Mondello
Vortec head design for Bowties-- thank Joe for a lot of help.

My car has a couple of Joe inspired items in the engine compartment. I feel like a heel as I saw Joe, but did not say 'hi' in ChiTown last fall. I was lucky enough to have Joe pick my car out and have him pose with it and 2 other outstanding Olds at the OCA nationals in Denver in 2001. The performance community lost a huge member of legendary stature. God Speed Joe!!!!!!
