Default Could it be Ed's car?

I am seeing an fire damaged LT5 engine and a complete SW headers with Corsa exhaust for sale posted by "fparts" based out of Bristol, PA.
Could these be off Ed's car?

Just talked to Ed. These are off Ed's car. Headers and Corsa could be a deal!

I figured that engine was out of Ed's car. Wonder if the heat from the fire would have warped any of the parts?

Some issues with the arrived condition of this exhaust system.
Seller has responded immediately to my concerns.
My post is withdrawn.

I bought an entire salvage ZR1 from Rocky at Contemporary Corvette (FParts) a couple years ago. They were easy to work with. Hope you get things worked out with the exhaust.

It arrived shipping battered. Seller responded quickly offering full money-back guarantee & paid return shipping, so I know he's a good guy.
I held onto it, and glad I did. The headers are going into another ZR-1 I just acquired & might swap the Corsa into it later on.

On another note, I just double shipped a brand new high quality case, to fetch a C4 glass top. This is the same type of case/trunk used by studios to transport flat screen monitors. The case took a real beating, glass was ok, but it was the same FedEx route as the Corsa exhaust.

Can someone confirm if these SW headers were ever coated, or not?

*Update- reply received, Jet-Hot coated.

I know Ed had the headers coated. SW sent them out to their coatings people who then drop shipped to Ed
