What seems to be the result of a shoddy tracking system and workplace thievery, Holden’s South Australian manufacturing plant in Elizabeth has found itself short over $2.5 million worth of GM V8 engines along with manual and automatic transmissions.

While police are keeping specifics on the DL for now, they suspect that a small group of factory insiders may have been directly responsible for the crimes, according to Australian newspaper Adelaide Now.

Lol damn DOC

“The build sheet is the wish list of any racer: lightweight high-revving dry-sump LS7 engine; carbon-ceramic brakes; integrated coolers; true aerodynamic downforce, and a significant reduction in curb weight. This car could only come from Chevrolet, and could only be called the Z/28.”

They weren't stolen.

Holden execs found Doc's "Man Juice" on the engines and transmissions. Had to throw out the lot and claimed they were stolen.
