Default L83's in '82
I was looking in Corvette Enthusiast were they show the prices of all the Corvettes and they list a L82 as an option in '81 and '82. As I understand there were no options for a different motor other than the L83 Crossfire in '82. What's up with that?

The last year for the L82 was 1980. The '81 only had the L81 engine, and the '82 had the L83. That's it.

Must've been a misprint or editing error...
