Both of these are under contractual obligation to GM. They (Katech) produce the product(s) that are in question, for GM.
I asked about buying an LS7.r engine. Price was $125,000 and NO I was not approved to puchase one. But Might get approved to purchase a slightly used C5r engine for $85,000 - Ummm Pass

As to whether or not anyone can produce the engine(s) in question, I may be wrong, but, the rule is for homologated engines. A homologated engine, is specific to the engine that is homologated with the car, is it not? With that being the case then no one but GM can authorize the use of the engine. Which seems to be the case with the AM lump also.


L.P.
Correct. Only GM may approve who can use their engines.
