Remanufactured LT1 Crate Engine?
I'm looking at the side of my LT1 not too long ago and noticed a plate saying "Four Star Engines" and found a blue plate just to the right of it with "Production No: 900326" and it also says " Remanufacture code" but I can't see that code due to the plate being right above the engine mount, I can't move around to see it with the starter and exhaust right in my line of sight. So what is known about this company? The engine has been bored .060 with speed pro hypereutectic pistons. Is there any way to contact the company and maybe determine the mileage on the engine itself based on a date it was manufactured? I would love to contact the previous owner of the vehicle but there's a funny story on how I aquired my 95 Firebird, the owner went to jail or something and this car was abandonded at his apartment, so my dad (owns his own towing company) impounded it and the owner never claimed the vehicle, so legally it is titled to us and is our property with a little bit of paper work, so I wouldn't like to call them and have the guy argue with me over who's car it should be, plus its against the towing regulations to contact previous owners.

Well I looked up the company with no luck of a webpage. I called about 4 numbers I was given, all of which have been disconnected. I found an address and looked at the facility on google maps and the place looks completely run down and abandoned with no cars, rusted roof tops, spider cracked concrete parking lot, ect. I guess they are no longer in business?
