Correct, but 1978-1979 had the good 481988 XX block which is a thicker casting than the 1977 500557 thin-wall. Plus there were cam changes and induction system tweaks which meant 220 horse versus 1977 200 horse. The 481988 XX blocks are in 8 and 9 second Pontiac drag racers running today.

And no WS6 in 1977 available, only 1978-79, which makes a decent-handling car a REALLY decent- handling car.
