Oh and I received some more clarity about how the engine came to be in the Vette. I thought I remembered him saying that it was put back in by mistake but I guess the story is the original Vette engine was burning oil so they pulled it and just threw in whatever engine he had lying around. And because the engine in question was a 427 it was thrown in and the Corvette was continued to be driven. The original owner was indifferent, that part was true, and didn't seem to care that a valuable COPO engine had inadvertently been installed when revealed later.
