Default Another LT-1 ????

The tach looks suspicious to me - VIN seems right and car looks right

Anything wrong with this picture?










I thought the alternator was always on the drivers side of the motor.

Headers, doesn't look like a factory fuel line. Breather instead of an elbow and hose going to the air cleaner.

Alternator sure is on wrong side and the tach sure is wrong. Does not appear to have A/C and without A/C red line should be 6500

a/c car should have a redline of 5600 rpm's. alternator should be on drivers side and the bracket should bolt to the front of the heads. as shown is a camaro/chevelle bracket
