As I understand it the RA272 used torsion bar valve springs. Does anyone have a drawing or photo of the adjustment mechanism?

Because of the efficiency of the unique transverse engine this car coped alot better with the high altitude and thin air of the mexican race than its competitors that year. Lead driver Ginther went on to win ahead of Dan Gurney. This was also Goodyears first F1 win.
