That and the fact the C4 was on its way out well before '96.
That and the C5 was a no-go for DOHC because the hood is too low. I guess dry sump wasn't in the cards yet. |

Where is the one with the plutonium-powered nuclear fission reactor feeding the flux capacitor?
If we are going to do fiction, might as well do it right. Marty |

I kind of doubt this articles time line. According to an article by Motor Trend title , The " Original LT5 " and What Could have Been . They were told as early as 1991 that the LT5 was to be canceled and the rest of the engines made by 1993 would be used up until they were exhausted. Graham and his team had not built a gen III LT5 nor would they. The new LS engine was already in development for the all new C5 Corvette. It's a worth while read and can be found on the internet. It also talked about Graham receiving some boxes of parts that were to be used but were not and he built a working version while at Lingenfelter.
