That term has been around for a while. I first remember hearing it at a BG Corvette event. It means that a correct engine (casting and date code) was broached and stamped to look like the original born with engine.

Re: 1967 Z28 FOR SALE
The National Corvette Restorers Society and Bloomington Gold Corvette judging rules have accepted a "Restoration Engine" since both of their inception. IMHO I feel they understand Corvettes were designed to be "Ran Hard" and most Corvette's engines never Survived the thrashing, so a casting and date code correct engine that has been broached and stamped is O.K. with them. Most Muscle car Guys look down on this as not acceptable. I guess it's all personal preference. I'm just sayin....
