@johnny-mallonee14 years ago Oops I left a word out in above caption, it should have read 8 motors to each team but here is caption from GM a few weeks before Daytona, General Motors Chairman Fred Donner ordered all divisions to shut down their racing programs effective immediately. The Mk. II V-8 was marooned. Some sources say 42 engines were produced before the plug was pulled; others claim as few as 18.
