Glidden said himself he switched because prior to him running the Arrow Ford hadn't even given him a pair of valve caver gaskets. He went back to Ford because Mopar went broke. Again, his own words.
So I just read an interview Glidden did for HR magazine. I read what he said. Fortunately, I was THER and I lived through it. He says in the interview he was getting weight breaks with the Chrysler and he dominated, like he did with the ford. He was no more broke with Chrysler than ford.
He was the most factored car in PS. He was sick of it. He may have went back to ford because he got a bone, but it was mostly about factoring. Still is today. Chrysler racers get corn holed by NHRA and yet Chrysler racers still keep taking it.
It was about factoring.
