Excellent book!

Also touches on the internal squabbling that went on with Chevrolet, and the animosity Chevrolet Engineering seemed to have for the Traco-built engines Penske used. By 1970 neither side cared much, and that is how a Chevrolet dealer ended up racing AMC Javelins.

Another excellent book written by a true 'insider' is Chevrolet=Racing...? by Paul Van Valkenburgh.
