<p>Hi Bill. Yeah it was a Buick V-6 as I remember -but I have never heard of how it was all 'lashed' up. Harry Volpe was crew chief and I was told another guy by the name of Adam Everett was one of the brains behind the team. Also someone told me that Harry also help develop the 'chute pack' that the guys use to wear on the back of their life jackets.</p>
<p>Maybe Mira Slovak knows..., about the V6 installation? Hopefully, someone else will jump on this.</p>
