Who built your engine?

Racer
whoever built mine did a SHI*TY job because its at the dealer needing the oil pan seal changed out for oil leak after a month of ownership and only 800 miles.. which by the way requires the entire front end to drop for access.. just after I had it specially aligned and corner weighed.
From what I remember it wasn't one of the girls.. go figure..

In prior years, maybe, but it's lookin' like all of the '17 ZO6's got them.
Just kidding about Bruce (Caitlyn) Jenner having put my engine together. The name on the plague is actually Arnold Swarzenegger. :

My Engine Mentor was Kathy (Katherine) Walker. I asked her to put her Name Plaque on the engine as well. I also signed my engine on the bottom of the Oil Cooler. It was very cool to be under the car as it came down the overhead conveyer and see my signature.

Built by John Brousseau. I friended him on Facebook, seems like a great guy and was happy to hear from me
He said I was the first person that he'd built an engine for that found him -- kinda cool.
