Is this a Corvette Engine in Disguise?

With limited time until I am incapacitated due to surgery, we tear into the Corvette Cadaver like a fat kid with a cookie cake. The plan is to sell as many parts as we can and use the bottom end and belt drive for Project Ethel. The question is does this car have a crate engine or a cleverly disguised original engine? Thanks for watching!

I am and will always be a big Corvette fan......BUT C3s and 4s are pretty ruff to love. Glad to see that one become parts and not scrap. Although....Big nasty turbos make anything fun.
Great video! Keep’em coming!

Have you ever seen rally lights that pop up out of the roof of a Lightning? Something to think about...
