OH OH OH!!! A dealer told me and my friend that a IROC we were looking at had a 'vette engine in it. (classic CLASSIC fuckin line.)

He was ~almost~ stumped when I look at the emmission label and point out…“didnt know 'vette’s had 305’s”. OOPS! He being the sly snake he was, “oh, they “swapped” a corvette engine into it.” But, oddly enough there were no recipts or any proff of this.  
Ass holes…

i can’t wait to get further and further from the 80s so I don’t ever have to hear about the VETTE ENGINE IN A CAMARO!

but wait. The same friggin thing happened with the LT1

then the LS1

if i have to hear this ‘the camaro has a corvette engine!!’ shit one more time, i’m gonna flip the fuck out.

at least the LS1 dynos about identical in both vettes and f-bods, but still - 5.7TPIS only came with aluminum heads STOCK if they came in a corvette
