Evan, are you familiar with the magnesium-block "International" tractor built by the Middle Tennessee State University engineering department called "Old Rattler"? It was sponsored by "Rattle and Snap" plantation, a farm corporation that goes back to post Civil War days. That one was awesome! I built Chrysler hemi engines for the Douthit bothers from Bunker Hill Tennessee. Their truck was called "Big Mama Magic".
