I'm going to stick with my car came with an LS1 engine. Most people don't understand, so you just say it goes fast at that point and offer a ride in your car if you know them well enough heh
There's not much of a point to say I got a vette engine. It just sounds like any other guy out there waving around their ****. For the past 20 years most if not all manufacturers have been "sharing" their engines across makes and models within their brand and making tweaks here and there.

I think for ***** and giggles, next time someone asks me if my car has a Corvette motor in it, I'm gonna tell them the truth. "Nope, block is out of an Escalade." I'm sure things will get interesting then.
