We emailed several times. I think he worked with Vic Edelbrock on a few projects.
I dynoed one on my RAIV 400 against a T2 and HO intake. all identical HP just the single planes shifted the TQ up in the rpm range. In the car the T1 picked up 2 mph but killed so much bottom end with a big solid cam it ran slower-even with a 4500 stall!

" Jim became renowned for his work at Edelbrock as vice president of R&D through the ‘70s and ‘80s. "
Here he stands beside a brand-new '67 Chevy Camaro. It was the first-ever Camaro shipped to the state of California, and Hot Rod snagged it for a project build. With the aid of 16 aftermarket companies, the Camaro was said to be the first of its kind to run 11-sec. quarters. https://www.sema.org/news-media/maga...-jim-mcfarland .
