Note the gigantic Holley four-barrel carburetor. Later named the Dominator in a customer contest, this carb, capable of processing more than 1000 cubic feet of air per minute, was jointly developed by Ford and Holley specifically for the Boss 429, and Ford racing teams enjoyed its exclusive use for a time. Later the design was turned over to Holley and marketed to racers of all makes.

Now researchers have confirmed that an ancient dolphin that lived during the Oligocene Epoch — 33.9 million to 23 million years ago — was the first cetacean (a type of mammal) using echolocation to navigate underwater and fill the role of apex predator, much like the current-day killer whale.
