a '73 frame off restoration, but they pulled the original L48 and replaced it with a '71 LT-1.

Why?

Very nice looking car but I just cannot understand what they doing.

Tom, it is a very nice looking vette for a 73, it is definetly one that has had way too much money spent on it .Non original and other mods as well. It just appears that he is going to have alot of problems, getting it sold for that kind of money.

I also pulled the L48 out of my 1973 Corvette, but that was in 1984 when I threw a rod through the block and leaked out all the oil. I replaced it with a 1970 LT-1 (yes it is the correctly coded Corvette block). But with a high performance hydraulic cam and a Holly 650 dual feed, dual pumper carb.
