This is incorrect. The 3970010 block is very common, used in both cars and
trucks and came in both 2 and 4 bolt configurations. (I have one of each).
I also believe it was used later than '75, maybe up through 1980. As
another poster pointed out, it could've been used (I *think*) for a '69 302
or 327, since they also utilized a 4-inch bore, like the 350.
I just re-read what I quoted above, and it may be correct that '69 3970010
blocks were all 4-bolts, but in later years, they came in 2-bolt versions as
well.
