You may have heard the name Bob Cahill; he was the head of Chrysler Racing from the 1950s until he retired in the mid-1970s and was the boss of the group my friend Don dealt with when he was with Car Craft.  I got an email today saying he had died about a week ago.  He was an engineer with Chrysler through the development of the original Hemi as well as the second version ('64).  Here's an article I found on him that's pretty interesting as far as some of the highlights of his career:
