Default Corvette block?

Found another LT1 engine for a deal, this one apparently comes from a 96 Vette. Is there anything different to this one than there is on the 2 96's I have, both of those from F-Cars?

thanks.

Vettes have 4-bolt mains, and you will have to use a Vette Starter. I put one in my car as the new motor. Here is a pic..

Well if I pick this one up and it's a 4BM I might sell the last one I bought, which was out of a Firehawk. Will let ya know in a coupla days....

Thanks for the advice on the block fellas.
