Dave, if you are serious, there is one man you need to contact: Steve Tarence (Spelling?)

From either Kentucky or Tennessee, Steve ran a most unique Chevy II in, I think V/S. He used the 194 engine and a 3 speed.

This car sounded like it left at about 11,000 rpm, which would be a bit much for something with a crankshaft that was 10 feet long. Many times, he would win at Music City Raceway in their stock/super stock weekly combo. I think he even runner-upped at the US Nationals in the 1970's.

This was a car that if you ever saw it run, you never forgot it.

(And sorry too, for getting so off-topic.)

Steve Terrance, is the correct spelling, I think. The team was Huff, Terrance, and Watson. Used to be a killer car back in the day, on the "hot car" side of "the Hill". Back then, it was Jimmy Bridges, Harry Vineyard, Tucker Parrish, Don Wolfe, Danny Coffman, Kenny Schindler, Cliff Reigle,and sometimes Cotton Perry, among others I can no longer remember, running both Combo I and Combo II. If you could win Combo at "the Hill", you were just plain bad, car and driver, and could win anywhere. "Peanut" Watson was always a threat in Jack Huff's cars. "Peanut" can probably tell you where most any of the people and the cars are, he's still one of the best machinists around.
