Steve,
No.
By definition, ordinary chondrites have a petrologic classification of 3 to
6. Sometimes 7 depending on the meteoriticist.
Petrologic types 1 and 2 do not occur in ordinary chondrites Richard

I was thinking about this today and I have not had time to research it.
Hello Steve,
I hope you can do some research sometime, Steve. As H and L are thought
to be two unique and real parent bodies, your question can be stated
alternately:
Were there any places on the H parent body or the L
No, and there probably never will be, at least I don't think such a
classification would ever be widely accepted.
Type 2 is an old convention, and has only ever been applied to
carbonaceous chondrites. It originated with Wiik (1956), who divided
the carbonaceous chondrites into 3 chemical

Doug,
Does petrologic grade 3, in essence, mean little to no thermal alteration?
If so, then there can not be a type 2 even with a nice heat sink to
protect
these primordial chondrules. In fact, McSween's chart on pg 63 2nd ed.
shows type 3

Dear Steve;
Check the updated pages in your Meteorites A to Z
For new list members, it is quite a useful book to determine
classification information.
It was authored by our own list members Anne Black and the Jensen brothers!
I cherish my signed copy that brings me luck!
