SAE Paper 818A: A Ford Engine for Indianapolis Competition (1964) - W.H. Gay

This is the cover page of a Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) technical paper, number 818A, titled "A Ford Engine for Indianapolis Competition," authored by William H. Gay, Executive Engineer of the Engine and Foundry Division at Ford Motor Company. The paper was presented at the SAE Automotive Engineering Congress held in Detroit, Michigan, January 13-17, 1964. The cover bears the SAE triangular logo and the society's address at 485 Lexington Avenue, New York 17, N.Y. This page is a title/cover page only — no technical content (specifications, drawings, or data) appears on it. From this cover, a reader learns the paper's subject matter (Ford's racing engine program developed for the Indianapolis 500 competition), the author's identity and role at Ford, the SAE paper number (818A) for locating the full paper, and the date and venue of its presentation. The document is part of a multi-page scan set uploaded to a 1973 Ford Mustang gallery, though the paper itself concerns Ford's 1963-1964 Indianapolis racing engine effort rather than a specific production vehicle.
