Initial checking seems to bring out the following
Ted Tyce of Tyce Engineering in San Diego, CA.
Lloyd Taylor was associated with the DOHC racing

Still checking on anything further.

(Bob, I've suggested in the past that AQ offer an
electronic version of their index on the web). I'd
have thought that it would have stimulated interest
in back issues, etc. But no takers. You can go to:
http://www.autoquarterly.com/backissue.html
and do a quick search on major titles.)
