Harry Miller had a company that was innovative and made heads that bumped up power 80% by putting the valves in the heads instead of the block. Everything was incredible, until the stock market crash of 1929 killed the business
Harry was a genius,he changed the whole racing engine design scene in the 20s & early30s-read the book,"The Golden Age Of The American Racing Car" by Griff Borgeson it was great era,& even though I am a F1 tragic, I still know genius when I see it.
Thanks for the link to that spectacular car and the story behind it.Easily the best read of my weekend!
