It may have been surplus; Corvettes went to LSX motors in 1997, so I would bet that there are other cars out there that recieved 4 bolt main engines in 1997.

I'm not sure if LT's are like the Gen 1 sbc casting wise on the bottom end but, I would rather have a 2 bolt converted to a 4 bolt. The 2 bolts (once again not sure if they are the same as the Gen 1 sbc) have beefier main webs and when converted to 4 bolts are stronger than a factory 4 bolt block.

I would look at the build date and or look at the records on the car. If the build date is late then I would think the chances are high.
