Noel, a respected valve train design engineer and former vice president/general manager of Sig Erson Cams, was an avid drag racer and crew chief during the 60's and 70's. Terry was 11, when he started spending his summer vacations working with his dad at Sig Erson Cams where he was put in charge of sorting thousands of returned pushrods to determine which could be put back into inventory. This job created an interest in pursuing a career in the manufacturing of this component. At age 12, Terry was introduced to Ed Iskenderian who noticed his enthusiasm, learned of Terry's interest, and convinced Terry to buy an Elgin pushrod chucker for six hundred dollars. It took him six months of mowing lawns to pay it off. http://www.mantonpushrods.com Thu, 07 Dec 2006 06:44:16 GMT http://racedrive.com/dir/links/manton_pushrods-596.html
