You are correct. Only theories, but it "appears" that an LT5 could have been stamped with a VIN deravation and then not installed in that same sequence numbered ZR-1.

I guess I would ask what if that crate motor was sent back to BG what would the VIN stamp look like?

What was the reason that the 405 LT5 was not installed in the correct ZR-1?
