    i had a HZ GTS in the 80s and was always correcting people about them not being Monaros

    when i had a Monaro (2003) i was alwats correcting people that they weren't 350s

    then there's all the people with different ranges of Holden V8 engine powered cars who claim their model came standard with 4-bolt bottom end - the list just goes on and on

    Sorry, this may be a dumb moment, but didn't the Monaro V2 CV8 come with the Gen3 5.7 V8 which pretty much was like a 350 Chev.

    Yes V2 had a 5.7L Gen3. But it was defintely not 350ci (about 346ci), and no more a Chev engine than a Holden 304/350 engine was a Chev engine! The last Holden to be fitted with a Chevy engine was a HQ. As far as I know the last Holden badged vehicle to befitted with a Chev engine (a Gen II) was the Suburban.
