HolmanMoody conquered the tracks in NASCAR but also became synonymous with precision engineering.

In the late 1950s and throughout the 1960s, HolmanMoody became a force to be
reckoned with in NASCAR (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing). The team's
success on the track was inseparable from Ford Motor Company's desire to dominate the series, and HolmanMoody was the de facto Ford "Factory Team" in NASCAR. Their meticulous approach to engine building contributed significantly to the team's numerous victories and championships. One of those defining moments came in 1965 when HolmanMoody built engines powered Ned Jarrett's Ford to victory in the Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway. This triumph solidified their reputation as a master engine builders and
showcased the technical superiority of HolmanMoody engines.

While HolmanMoody made a name for itself in NASCAR, Ford's ambitions extended
beyond American soil, so team ventured into international competitions, including
endurance racing events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans. HolmanMoody engines powered Ford
GT40s to victories at Le Mans in 1966 and 1967, marking historic moments in motorsport history.

HolmanMoody also produced some of the greatest engine builders to torque a set of rod bolts Keith Dorton, Waddell Wilson and Robert Yates.
