    Hmmmm...so I went looking for the needed bolt holes to hook up a the mech. fuel pump on my '89 big block, and lo and behold, they're all there. Even a pushrod access hole (behind that plug).

    So, what gives?

    Casting date and # match up with the block being an '89 cast. So did they actually slip some of these out in 1-ton trucks? I thought that access for a mech. fuel pump was omitted on 454 blocks after '87 or so.
