Not to bust your bubble, but the WX code was used on the '75 1/2 455 & '76 455 4 speed T/A's. Neither year will be a 4bolt main or have outer holes drilled & tapped for 4 bolt caps on the center 3 mains. The 455 was quite tame in these years, though a "455HO" was used on the shaker, these engines were not near as strong as the 71 & 72 HO's. In earlier years (before most of the 455's were scarfed up), many of us avoided the '75 & 76 455's, but with the advent of aftermarket Pontiac splayed 4 bolt caps, this era of blocks has come into demand. However,the WX coded block would probably be best suited & prove marketable for restoration of a '75 or '76 455 T/A missing it's original block.
