    Bill, I had a friend that sent me an abbreviated version of this which was just pictures. It did say that an increase of ONE rpm gave an additional 10 thousand horse power. My favorite is the three men and overhead hoist installing 1/2 a bearing shell.

    Agreed , the motto " There is no replacement for Cubic Displacement " holds true even to-day many years later .
