Steve, for me what makes a 1st gen Z/28 a Z/28 is the 302 engine, not the rally stripes or any other Z/28 standard or optional item. To me a Z/28 with any engine other than a real 302 is no longer a real Z/28. It doesn't have to be the original 302, just a 302 built exactly like the original would have been. My vote is to have the original engine rebuilt and put back into the car.
