We were lightspeed before NASA got off the launchpad

An Olds aluminum V-8 in a rear-engined Lotus racecar before Lotus was able to get a smallblock Ford V-8 to work and be safe to drive and race in the same identical rear-engined Lotus (that has the 4 cylinder Coventry Climax engine)

A Corvette engine in a Lister-Jag that raced at Daytona and Sebring

V-8 transplants in XKE-Jags before Jaguar

Automatic transmissions (American Borg-Warner ATs) from Jag sedans adapted and fitted for Liz Taylor and Eddie Fisher for their matching new red XKE-Jag roadsters
(I did not like the dashboard selector but they insisted on it)
