Just a short list. 71 LeMans Sport, 400 4bbl, 4 speed 67 Ventura, 400, 4bbl 4 speed 68 LeMans Convertible, 326, slushbox tranny and 2 bbl 69 GTO, 400, Tri-power, 4 speed later changed to 428, RAV 4bbl 4 speed 65 Tempest wagon, 326HO, 4bbl, 5 speed 65 Tempest 2 dr, 326HO, 4bbl, 4 speed, 65 GTO 455SD, EFI, 5 speed 67 LeMans, 326, 2bbl 4 speed 71 Granville wagon, 455 slushbox and 4 bbl 73 LeMans wagon, 350, 4 bbl 4 speed just a few. I owned some real tire burners (428 RAV and a 455SD powered GTO's) and some great daily drivers. I don't own any more, doubt I will ever again. RIP Pontiac.

A friend found it in a junkyard and had it restored. No offense meant but you can tell when someone doesn't know Pontiacs very well. Pontiac never had a small block/big block. All Pontiac engines used the same sized block. The big difference was the 421, 428 and 455 had a larger dia crank in the main journals in the same sized block. 326, 350, 389 and 400 all used the smaller dia crank mains. Connecting rods will interchange from any size engine.

Guess I was wrong. Immigrants who bypassed legal process in migrating to the US demand legal process before being kicked out.
