I con't remember where I found it but I'm sure it was on the web, I also found a guy who made a streamliner to try and break the world land speed record using 2 13 engines however I can't find that either now.
His name was Don Vesco I did write to his brother and try to get some pictures and info but he ignored me. :-(
