Some bowties were offered either way with the same casting #. all depends on how it was ordered.

Re: main caps

i orderd it from gm before they where no longer avaible and it cost almost $3000. i had bought it before i got the stroker crank from you. don't know if that helps any

Re: main caps

that really doesnt matter much. I'd just stick some billete caps on it and be done with it. at most your looking at about $500. you should be able to tell pretty easy by looking at them.
