Default Crank flywheel pilot diameter

I know there are 2.75 diameter cranks(esp the 3.25 cranks) but I;ve read different references for the 400 cranks 2.50 and 2.60. There are even flywheels for both.
I have two 400s and the 301T form the 81 on engine stands and they all measure 2.50.

What cranks are 2.6?

I've never seen a Pontiac crank with a 2.6 flywheel register

Thanks Paul. I saw some on line reference and also PRW has two flywheels one with a 2.5 -2.75 spacer ane one with a 2.6-2.75. But all mine are either 2.5 or 2.75.

2.6" registers are from an earlier time zone. Like 1955 through part of 1963.

That reference has my 78 400 listed as 2.6 and it is definitely 2.5, and also has no 2.5 listings.
