Nope, all B-bodys got 2 bolt mains. However there are stories of Gm replacing 2 bolt short blocks with 4 bolt short blocks if a motor was pulled under warranty. So there probably are a few 4 bolt B-bodies out there but if its from the factory it has two bolts.

Buick roadmasters came with lt1's as well. (in case anyone cares) One in the yard with a totalled rear would be a find for a motor pull
Of course there are prolly difference in heads and other small details as mentioned above

I dont think I could pass on an lt1 for 500 bux, even though i have no use for it.
Heck I'll build a bad-@$$ dune-buggy or something

Well, you're close. Make that 94-96. That being Caprice-Impala-Roadmaster-Fleetwood. Each oem equipped with 10 bolts holding up the crank.

yea, I looked closer and you're right. ConsumerGuide.com was a little unclear that it was in 94 that the engine changed...

Comsumer Guide? Did CG also state some LT1 Buicks were actually equipped with prototype L(S)1s?

It may be more that I misunderstood it.

what did you send me that link for? I keep clicking it and it takes me back here. For some reason I seem to think that it will take me somewhere else if I keep clicking it. You're messing with my head man!

My motor on my car was replaced under warranty at a dealer, I wonder if mine is a 4-bolt? That would be sweet I have the paperwork around here somewhere with the part # for the GM LT1 crate motor.
