When I saw this engine it was in the car and it looked drivable at the time. Just speculating on this... I'm thinking it was a "one off". It seems to be the ONLY one in existence, so if GM was going use them for Trans Am etc would you think they would have made more?
We would have seen more of them too... Smokey had lots of pull, could he have got Winters to make just one?
