You will find links to the Luer Rocket. Seems that Ralston sponsered the program in the mid west.

I agree with you guys. Pablo is wasting money on the 951 project. His header that reduces high end power got me pretty pissed off. I thought he would pick cost effective mods, not $4,000 intercooler insulation jobs.
Makes me sick.

I have always wondered what that was from the first time I saw your avatar. I actually thought is was a legitimate NACA, NASA or Air Force project (what a fool I am).
At the risk of giving away your age - were you one of the lucky youngsters to experience the magic? It looks awesome.
