Yes, it was indeed a Corvette LT1, I saw it on the engine stand in CT - even told the guy the owner/seller that it was the Corvette version, to which he took great offense!

I sent him an e-mil through e-bay see below:

Dear thenovaguy6972,

Is the entire drive train original to the car or has it been changed?

Paul

His response:
Only the block was changed, all other parts are original

Sent from my iPhone

Just as info:
Paul

I know for a fact that the rear was not original to the car, in fact I think it might have been a '70 CBT rear and there was no transmission at all. The seller stated that the transmission was installed in a van, but nobody seemed to know about said van. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

The seller is no different than alot of sellers selling private or at auction. HES TRYING TO SELL A CAR. That why the SYC is a great site for information

Re: 70 yenko nova
 
mr 707 is correct - the seller in CT likely didn't really know that the corvette engine on the stand was not the original, and to him the 12 bolt in the car was just as correct as the original! The educated market priced the car fairly for him, and both parties were satisfied when it sold.
