You are correct. Its most likely a replacement LT1 block. All the replacement blocks were 4 bolt mains.

Thats great.. Thanks... Should be perfect for a build! Thanks again

Is it possible then that they made the 97 lt1 block in a 4 bolt? When I did the rebuild on my block i thought i recalled that the front and back caps were 4 bolt.

If was a 4-bolt from GM, I believe only the three center caps were 4 bolts.

I take that back, its a 2 bolt. mis-read the intial post.

This block has steel billet caps but still demonstrates what we're talking about.
Only the three center caps have 4 bolts.

It's possible that 4-bolt main blocks were used in 97 F-Bodys. If they had any left over from the Corvette, which discontinued the LT1 in 1997, I'm sure they put them in whatever came down the production line.
