An amazing fellow. Thanks for the link.
The Blackbird was truly an amazing feat of ingenuity and engineering.

The Isuzu 110. Solid and as dependable as a rock, coming soon with auto box😊
The Range Rover L322 4.4.TTDV8 ....probably won't bother with the remap..😈
The SR-71 is a good example of what can be achieved given virtually unlimited fund and no bureaucratic scrutiny, by a team that is determined to achieve what is deemed impossible. And remember, that aircraft first flew nearly fifty years ago!

Ben Rich's book 'Skunk Works' has the full story from the designers point of view. Excellent read.
