Not Ranked
Ernie:
Keith Martin of Sports Car Market would be the person to ask that question. My general thinking with regards to SOME marques is that the greater the racing history of the car, the less important the issue of engine originality. The history speaks.
I think that the James Garner A.I.R. cars, the Grady Davis Gulf cars, and the Grand Sports (these all being Corvettes), have such a great provenance that the engine issue is of little consequence. However, with many of the Corvettes, particularly low option, significant cars (low production L 88, 89) it is very important.
Regarding other marques, I have not sure. Again, a good question for Keith Martin. It appears that with original Cobras, it doesn't appear to be a significant issue with race cars or production vehicles.
