As a retired "stealership" Service Manager several things in this story do not add up. From the prices quoted just for an engine, to the incorrect part installed, to the lack of accountability of the dealer doing the work. Jobs would be lost and franchise agreements would be reviewed very seriously. GM doesn't screw around, especially these days.
As for techs stealing parts, as someone else has posted, I can tell you that's BS.
All the managers, dealer principle, parts staff, techs, car wash dudes, porters, shuttle bus drivers would have to be in on it.
Risk your 6 figure job and a multi million dollar franchis for stealing parts, come on.

But it WILL matter to a Z06. The car is partially the higher performing engine. Allot of ppl wont even buy an 01 Z06 due to the motor. Put an LS1 in it and not no, but HELL NO I wouldnt buy it.
