Merc could also refer to Mercury Marine, who built the LT5 engine fitted to the original Corvette ZR-1. Or if you're really old and crusty, a Mercury which was Ford's 'Buick' competitor. (Ford is to Chevy as Mercury is was to Buick as Lincoln is to Cadillac.)

Not to be confused with another Ford line, Merkur (you gave me an excuse to post an XR4Ti, I'm running with it!)
