What did Zora Arkus-Duntov do after the ARDUN heads?

Steve says Zora Arkus-Duntov went on to work for General Motors and is considered the father of the modern high-performance Corvette, including putting a V8 in it. Small-block Chevrolet enthusiasts will also know the Duntov cam, an over-the-counter high-performance camshaft, named for the same man.
