  23. Well, anymore, GM can't hardly tell the difference. After the embarassment
  24. of Chevy powered Olds of the 70's - the "Chevymobiles" - they mix and match
  25. car bodies to engines built by the different divisions all the time. Now
  26. though, they just have to disclose it to you if you're buying the car new.
