Default Old Article Stolen Injection Unit

Help... I'm sure I'm posting in the wrong area again, but I don't know where this question should be posted. I recently purchased a 61 315hp fuel car.
The car was originally from Ventura CA. then traveled to Joplin, MO. While still in Ventura back in the 90's - 2000's the motor was torn down and
being rebuilt, at that time the injection was stolen. There was a divorce occurring at the same time which may have had something to do with the
injection disappearing. The gentleman I purchased the car from mentioned that there was an article referencing the stolen injection unit either on a
forum or Corvette News. I didn't find any article searching the NCRS publications Just by chance, does anyone remember the article or have any
knowledge of the incident ? Many thanks... and, sorry if I posted in the wrong area again.

Hello, this Help section is for Help with the CorvetteForum website (account issues, etc.,) and is not the place to post technical questions about Corvettes, or other questions not related to the website, as they will not be seen by other Corvette owners.

Instead, please find the correct section, based on the generation of the Corvette.


Go back to the main forum page:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/

Now start to slowly scroll down until you see your generation of Corvette listed.

C1 or C2 (1953 - 1967)?:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...2-corvettes-4/

We encourage new members to take some time to browse around the site and read the Announcements and Stickies as they contain important and frequently asked information.

Thank-you
