Is there any way to find out motor and options on a car without the original motor tank sticker or build sheet.Car does have matching trans m21.Rear sway bar.80lb oil gauge.6500 redline.Is there any documentation behind the dash.Would replacing with a dated correct engine take off value.Vin and interior codes are there with original rivets.Had John Hinckly verify nice guy.Any help would be appreiciated.

It's surprising how many people in all the forums post a question, have no profile filled out, and don't even tell you the year or body type their question is about. C5 is probably worse but it obviously happens in C1/C2 also.

So sorry. 1966 corvette coupe black on black.Came with a 66 427 engine.Broke the cam at the third journal.2 cyls were sleeved and had been decked.Engine rebuilder said no way he could fix because there was only about .004 left on the block. Bought a new GM crate 454.Came into some money and was looking to restore but I don't want to throw money away if it is not an original 427.
