Last point, if a buildsheet and/or the original Drivetrain isn't around you can’t definitely identify a 69 2bbl car since the 2bbl option doesn’t appear on the PHS (because it was a no charge option).

Ways to spot a car that originally had a 2 bbl but the engine is gone include the specific coded turbo 400, 2.93 or 2.78 axle ratio would be an indicator as well since those ratios were never offered with any other GTO engine (in 69, in 67-68 350 horse AC cars had 2.93’s). Another indicator on a non AC car would be a single fuel line (any V8 pontiac in 69 with AC and/or a 2 bbl would have 2 fuel lines).
