Windfish posted this great article from Science and Mechanics in the General Chat forum. I thought it was worth reposting here in case some people here don't read that sub-forum regularly.

From the August 1955 issue, it's amazingly comprehensive and worth saving.

On page 69 of this same article "Porsche Engine installed" with a picture. Its difficult to tell if it's an actual Porsche or an okrasa though
