"Indy 4" name edit
I have added a "circular reference" tag to the name "Indy 4", as the quoted source from Autoweek actually referenced Wikipedia in the first place. A cursory internet search yields a few discussion boards talking about the name, but none of these are particularly reliable sources. Sources for the "Trophy 4" name are plentiful. Was this engine ever really called the "Indy 4"? Is this engine being confused for the "Super Duty" racing versions of the Iron Duke engine, which were available in (at least) 2.7 L and 3.0 L displacements and featured in the Pontiac Fiero pace car at the Indy 500 in 1984?

- Nevermind, found a source; a 1960 article from Popular Science. CplDHicks2 (talk) 02:22, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
