Lingenfelter Legacy Car

Wallpaper Description:

Indiana’s Jeff Myers helped to carry forward the iconic name of drag racing great John Lingenfelter (who passed away on Christmas Day, 2003) during 2015. Myers, who works at the company John founded (Lingenfelter Performance Engineering), races a 2013 COPO Camaro, which is painted to resemble the classic Meyer & Lingenfelter 1969 Camaro Super Stocker campaigned so successfully in the 1970s. Jeff can run his car in Stock and Super Stock configurations using either a 427ci LS7 (430hp with LS7 heads) or 427ci (450hp with LSX DR heads) engine programs – both built in house at the Lingenfelter facility. Myers’ car was first obtained from Chevrolet through the Jim Crivelli Chevrolet dealership (McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania). He reported that shortly after that there was a family decision to use it to commemorate and honor John Lingenfelter for all the contributions he made to both the performance industry and within NHRA drag racing. We say Bravo for that!
