Yenko "aquired" the molds for the ZL1 and started having motors cast with the Yenko crest on them. Most ended up in racing boats.

Believe Pickett who won the Trans Am in 1978 beating the Chevy Dekons and Porsche 934 & 935s was a Greenwood car powered by a Yenko.
This was the Big Block Corvettes last significant win. (Along with the L-88s A/Prod title same year )
History pretty well unknown in the Corvette hobby
