That figure of 13000 tri-powered Corvettes is incredible!
Can you imagine how many '69 z28's are fakes too? If you were going to you'd fake the high value cars because of the profit margin.

To me a '68 z/28 without the original engine is just another Camaro & the prices reflect that.
Yenko's are worth less without their original or a counter exchange engine in them are they not? (still alot of money though).
Dealer swapped engines like Baldwin/Motion cars had are probably easier(?) than factory cars as they rarely had the original engine in them. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
We can only imagine how many "special high performance" GM engines were scattered over the streets & tracks accross North America [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] to be replaced by who knows what after the warranty ended.
I'm sure when Mr. Mattison is done there will be a lot of crying out there as well as a few law suits. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]
