Lets play a little game with this ad

Name 5 of the 6 blatantly obvious things that prove this was an Fbody setup rather than a vette, and it was an 87 setup vs 89
The filter box thing doesnt count as he states it

Pulley's correct
87 was the only year you could have the serp/v-belt combo on a TPI. 85-86 was V belt (few late 86's got the combo) 88-92 were full serp
MAF isnt, vettes had MAF and SD setups
Lower manifold is correct as the vette had no EGR provisions. You can see the block off plate and hole in the intake gaskets
Cold start is correct as the vettes were without
Fuel lines also correct. Vettes were pass rear exit and fbody dr front
TB? Those didnt change even when they swapped to LTx
Older TPI and all Vettes used the large cap HEI dist
The 6 I saw:
EGR manifold
Fbody rails
Cold start bung
Old belt stup (Could be vette but definitely not an 89 as listed)
C207 wiring connector
Non sealed ECM. All vettes had an engine bay mounted ECM which required waterproofing. Fbodys were all in-dash units which did not require waterproofing
