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:
