<sigh> so close...

"    I thought the Buick V8 bore spacing was the same too?

i might be wrong on the amc 6 spacing.

the buick v6 and v8 up to 350 and the buick/rover aluminum v8 spacing
is 4.25" - the buick 350 was smaller and lighter than any other 350.
afaik the 252 v6 needed siamesed cylinders to get to 3.96" bore.

afaik all gm big blocks and the ford 429/460 are 4.875" bore spacing.
