I believe it was 70 & 71, MOST of these were 4 bolt, no 4 bolts I ever saw past 73, we really prized the early ones, most people thought (still do) that with out 3 freeze plugs it was a 350, soooooo there was the displacement advantage.
The other bad rap was overheating because of the steam holes, WRONG they cooled great, the problem was putting the wrong head gasket on and COVERING the steam holes, then they would overheat.
Hope this helps.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
