The car in the pics is not mine. I found them when doing a search on the forums hear I think.
When I picked up the XV 400 I couldn't find that code in any of my manuals etc.
I asked a few pontiac friends and they never heard of this code either.
I couldn't find a whole lot of info until I ran across that article under optional engines for 70. The car was part of the article.
That build sheet you have for that car lists a 4 barrel L-78 engine. The article says they were all 2 barrel engines or 6 cylinder chevys standard.
Ordering the 4 barrel got you the XV code 400 330hp for the auto or WS code for manual.
I would say that car is legit if it has a XV code and matched numbers.
I currently have rebuilt the block and will be installing it in my 69 ram air 3 4-spd GTO.
Should be a good conversation piece when done.
