Cornfused??
The responses do not coincide with the blocks I am looking at. Both the XX L199 engine and the 481988 engine have 4bolt mains. Thus I don't believe them to be low performance 2barrel carb engines. What gives? T

The XX code 2 bbl engine was also available in Birds.
The XX in my Esprit had the block drilled and tapped for 4 bolt main caps but used 2 bolt caps. (also has 12 bolt rear-end :)) The 72 block is strange, I didn't think they made a 4 bolt drilled 400 block after 1970, except maybe as a SR block.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
