Default Jess Tyree 65 Tempest Funny Car Buildup

Brian,
I didn't go through the whole thread to see if someone answered you or not. The September 1966 Super Stock and FX magazine had a buildup of Dick Jesse's altered wheelbase 65 Tempest with injected 421 SD, I think on fuel.

I think some have actually posted scans of this article, as I've seen it on the 'net, but I can't find it now.
