Re: 1971 gmc big block
a 71 would be a 402 regardless what the SPID says, chevy stopped making 396 engines at the end of the 69 model run.
GMC trucks were made in smaller numbers period. |

Re: 1971 gmc big block
Longhorn's right... 396 from the factory in '71 is not possible.

Re: 1971 gmc big block
Yeah,a GMC with BBC would be more rare than a Chevy.There were about 20% GMCs to Chevy built and as you add lower number options you can get a pretty rare GMC.
