Default 1970 or 1971 Chevy Power Book?

I am looking for the parts book that chevy published with all its high-preformance racing and road racing parts in '70 or '71, even '72. I have been told it was green in color. It was an early version of the "Power Book" although it wasn't called that during this time frame. It would have all the ZL1 and L88 road race stuff like 12.5:1 pistons, OK Kustom headers, Oil coolers, LS7 crate engines, high-perf ignitions, etc.....anybody even have an image of one so that I know what it looks like? Thanks in advance.

Here's a copy of the original,which has an orange background & stopwatch on the cover & green pages.
Part #'s begin as early as 1963.

there are reprints of the 72 edition on ebay.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1963-1972-Chevy-...40e&vxp=mtr

Thought about buying one myself, as my earliest is the 6th edition from 1984.

Bought my first &quot;Power Book&quot; in 1976, but don't know where it went.
I also don't remember what edition it was.

Wish I could help, but I also don't know what year they started calling it the Power Book.

I would bet SOMEBODY on this site has one of the first editions by that name.

This is the one I have but not 100% sure it is an original though I think I got it sometime in the 80's. Says revised 3-9-72.
