Re: Dan Miller RIP
This truly is sad news. Dan was always ready to help folks on this board and was an early hemi guru. He will definitely be missed here!

In Memory Of Dan Miller
Engine Masters Dan Miller

RIP, Dan MillerIt is with great sorrow that we report the passing of long-time Engine Masters Challenge competitor Dan Miller.
Veteran engine builder, Dan Miller, fell to coronary arrest on the 9th of May 2011. To the readers of PHR and Engine Masters magazines, Dan was best known for his incredibly innovative work with the early Chrysler Hemi engines, taking these archaic engines to front-running status in competition. With a natural curiosity and the talent and tenacity to see it through, Dan’s engines set the standard for unique thinking and originality.
Dan’s stature of character commanded instant respect from those around him, while his personable and friendly nature made him a man, and had anyone around him feeling like a long-time friend. As his teammate, Gene Adams tells us: “Dan was the driving force behind the whole deal. He got it going and did most of the engineering. He was 90 percent of the effort. I saw him at my shop no less than an hour before he passed; then I heard he had the heart attack.” John Beck from Pro Machine, where Dan did all his dyno testing, relates: “He was just the biggest joy to work with. He had all the enthusiasm and interest that you would expect from a kid. He spent a lot of time in my dyno cell, and now every time I go in there I seem to be looking around for him, and then you realize that he is not around anymore.”
Dan’s entry for the 2011 Xtreme class of the AMSOIL Engine Masters Challenge was already well under way at the time of his passing, with Dan having already put a tremendous amount of time and effort into the engine. We understand that his team members, headed by Bob Holmes and Scott Price, are looking to carry on with the entry as a tribute to Dan. He will be missed by all at the 2011 event.
