But Ihe American Motors engine was under the hood of an AMX Javeline, while the sleek racer was still en route from Los Angeles to Wendover. Breedlove will switch the engine tothe "American Spirit" In a week or so, fire it with an exotic fuel mixture and make other alterations for the attempt on Bob Summers' wheel-driven record of 409 mph. The car Is capable of 420 to 450 mph, Breedlove figures.

He warmed it up with a trial run of nearly 190 rnph In the heavier, less streamlined AMX, using gasoline. The "American Spirit 1 was scheduled to arrive early Ihls morning, equipped with a six- cylinder engine. Officials said his crew would make some minor alterations this morning, and Breedlove would takeafewprac- tlce runs this afternoon.
