Default L98....4 or 2 Bolt Mains

Does the L98 Motor (1991 Corvette) have 4 or 2 bolt mains from the factory? Also, is the crank cast or steel?
I believe its a 2 bolt with cast crank, but not positive.
If someone knows for sure, please let me know.
Thanks

I'm pretty sure mine (90) came with 2 bolt mains and a cast crank.

:cheers:

P.S. Phil, you need a sig pic my friend. I found the old one of your car yanking the wheels off the ground with the 44 and six speed. I can upload it for you and provide you with a link. Lemme know if you're interested.

Jay

JD, I now remember I loaded it to the CF free website at one time. The picture is large. If you could reduce it to a sig size, then I would appreciate it.
Thanks again.
Let me know.
Phil
