The Salerno Special

7 THE WILLYS HURRICANE ENGINE The Devin was built with a Willys Hurricane F-Head engine and then custom fit to the chassis in order to gain a near 50/50 weight distribution. With the name “Hurricane” cast directly on the head, the engine had a displacement of 161 cubic inches (2.6 liters) and delivered 90 horsepower. Salvatore’s sports car was designed to combine two worlds—a sports car which had a European chassis, but was powered by an American engine with an American-built body.
