I don't think there ever was one, Wade.

Ralph Feola, stick
Bill Cornelius, stick
Maybe Lou Cuviello?

Carb is too small for the 230 hp rating

As far as Johns corvette, it was one of the first to use a lockup converter and thrasted more on it than a prostocker in the the day. Was going to be the first in the 10s at indy then broke it , rented a coptor flew back to his shop got repairs to only have a piece of silcon go into the carb. Some magazine did a story on it have it somwhere Them were the days. Tom.
