Yes, Tonawanda did build some "powerhouses" - been there. They also were responsible for the Corvair! Here's a Tonawanda decal from a Corvair but you're more accustomed to seeing it on the BB
I don't know about the Presidential accolades!
Tonawanda has actually been quite busy the past few years with "newer technology" in GM Powertrain.
Take a look at "total engine production"
