16-plug small block Chevy engine in development for the Grand Sport is just one example of where Chevy was headed for performance before the 1963 GM racing ban snuffed it all out.

My buddy Tommy built this car, and raced it at Loudon (NHIS) in the 90s. He just restored it back to its former glory.

----Yup! That's as it appeared on the cover of Corvette news. It sat way too high initially as we didn't have time to adjust it. The 1st showing was at that years B-Gold and the car was finished the night before. You could almost stick your whole hand down one of the Weber's throats....Bill S

hard to find pictures of the Grand Sport from 1963 when the Yenko Gulf team had it
The Corvette #1 is Don's "light weight" 57 that he built to run in B/P |
