WT (66 manual trans) blocks were more available so I purchased one of those for a prospective build which has never happened. It is date coded K 24 6.

There is a member here on these forums, Alex S, who from time to time posts for sale some of the more hard to find engines/blocks. You might PM him to see what, if anything, he currently has. There is a commercial yard, Franks Pontiac Parts, that always seem to have some blocks (and much more) available, he is very good about keeping his inventory current on the website www.frankspontiacparts.com. I have not purchased an engine or block from Franks.

Good Luck!
Will do. Thanks!

3 goats, can you tell me if there are shoulder belts or the provisions for them under the headliner just behind the front seats but in front of the clothes hanger hook. I've heard some in that time frame did have them, or the attachment points for them. Other say no they didn't, so I'm just checking to make it clearer. Nothing in print is always true. One way to check too is a 3/16ths hole punched in the bottom of the data plate that shows they could be installed if not already included from the factory.
