I looked at my small album of pics I still have of that car. I need to scan them to make them easier to share. I have no pictures of the engine out of the car. Just a few pics of the underhood with engine installed. I don't think PHS was around in those days, the car cost me $1500.00 and it was a decent running car. I do remember the 2 bolt caps and being surprised. If no one else has seen this, then I would guess either the caps were changed, I would have no idea why, or it was a WS block from another year or model swapped-in before I bought the car. As I recall, the car only had 65K or so miles on it and it really looked like the engine had never been touched. Wish I would have been smart enough to have really investigated it. At least around here, nobody really cared about all this stuff in the late 70's, early 80's. We were just puzzled for a few minutes and went on to the next project.
