<font color="red"> well, lets see, original motor had 2bolt mains (sum reason dunno why) new motor (well, rebuild of another block) is 4-bolt mains. seems GM had a hard time figuring out which blocks went where...usually, the heavy duty burbans got the 4-bolt mains...dun see too many blazers wit 4bolts. /forums/images/graemlins/yikes.gif </font>

Sounds like the trucks got whatever happened to be handy when being built. Craziness...
Every truck sbc I've seen apart was 4 bolt mains, including the 350 from my Jimmy. As I understood it only passenger cars got the 2 bolt mains unless it was a high performance application. I guess the reality is that it was a crap shoot, and most customers would never find out one way or the other anyways... /forums/images/graemlins/whistling.gif
GM is/was a weird company.

As far as I know Blazers that came from the factory with a towing package got the 4 blt mains. Which to Me makes since.
Prolly just the K5's built on Tuesdays and Thursdays...unless it was beige and had power windows, then it got 2 bolt mains.
