You cannot go by the L48 being the 2 bolt all the time. I have a 80 that is a L48 with correct numbers block for the car and it has 4 bolt mains. You will never know unless you drop the oil pan. Brent

A member from this forum said that he used to work on the line when these cars were being built. If they ran out of 2 bolt blocks they would grab a 4 bolt main motor to keep the line moving along. Brent
