small block w-2 heads

The first time I read anything on Glidden, it was an Car Craft article.
It was coverage on the first time shakedown runs of the Arrow.
In that article, they stated that Plymouth had given him a pallet of blocks & heads, along with a new Dodge 1-Ton & Chapparel trailer.
Plymouth had told Glidden, that all the R&D was his, he didn't have to share it.
They just wanted him to race for them.
He described the Mopar engine as a "chevy" with funny rocker arms.
The Arrow ran as fast as his record setting Fairmont that first time out, I think it was an 8.48 et.
I would love to see more info on the W2 stuff from that era.
The odd thing was, it took a Ford guy to bring out the best of the W2 smallblock.
None of the Mopar guys seem to challenge him, as he dominated the 1979 season.
He had a 1980 Volare being built, but Chrysler went bankrupt at this time, killing any chance of a 1980 season.
