Re: Any truth to this 396/402 update?
Haven't we discussed this here in the past and the extra bore was an economical way to intentionally total more than 400 actual cubes thus resulting in these engines being classed under a different and less stringent (and cost) emissions class?.
Being the 1970 production year was when GM dropped their no more than 400 cubes in an A-Body rule, is this perhaps the actual reason?.
