Mr Stender and his team from the US used an engine from an F-4 Phantom fighter jet to enable the incredible top speed.

In 1962 at 16 years of age, they gave me the first Chevy bus in our school district to have a V-8 in it (327 with a 4-barrel) and no governors on it when it first came in.

...and I thought I had a hot rod bus..... :rotf:

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
