Courtesy Chevrolet-The FIRST Chevy big block The Courtesy Chevrolet AA/GD is quite significant in drag racing history since it was powered by THE first blown big block Chevy ever made. Partners in the car, Gary Goodnight, Bob Keith and Maurice Williamson, gained sponsorship from Courtesy Chevrolet in San Jose in 1965. Courtesy owner Bob Hamilton wanted a Chev product between the frame rails, not the 392 Chrysler hemi the team then used. When it was explained to him that a small block Chev could not match the power of a Chrysler hemi and that there were no aftermarket parts for the just-released Chevrolet 396 big block engine, Hamilton opened his check book and said, "have them made". The team then approached manufacturers such as Mickey Thompson, Cragar and Joe Mondello to have the necessary parts made to fit a 6/71 supercharger to the big block.
