Haven't seen the book, but based on his reputation, it's probably full of
good info.

A bit of tirvia--back in the late 60's, John Lingenfelter was a tech in
the IH Engine Labs in Fort Wayne--probably where he learned to appreciate
high-revving engines!  I never met him as he moved on about the time I
started, but I understand one of the things he did while he was there was
to drag race a Scout with the 4-152 Turbo engine and he set some national
records for the class he was in.  I wonder what he'd tell us today about
modifying IH engines?
