I own a service center in PA. Customer brought his 77 Corvette in with a blown engine. He found an engine from Wholesale-Engines. They needed to speak to me to determine which side of the engine the dip stick was on, right or left. At that time I spoke to Eric Mead from Wholesale-engines and told him it was in fact it was a right side.
The engine shows up and I have 2 dip sticks, one on the left and one on the right. There was never such an engine made with duel dip sticks. So upon inspection of the 2 dip sticks, found that what Eric Mead and his clowns did was glued on the right side dip stick mount. I do have pictures of this.
After further inspection of the engine, I found that #7 connecting rod was in the #2 cylinder and #1 connecting rod in the #8 cylinder. Also after further inspection, I found a hole in the #7 cylinder, also the crankshaft neck has 12 holes in it.
