What was the block used in the Pantera before the CJ's? Are they 4 bolt blocks?
Are all of the CJ 351's with the D2AE-CA blocks 4 bolt? That was the original specification on that engine.
Apparently the 4v 351c's were only 2 bolt blocks?

I do know that there are 2 bolt D2AE-CA blocks but my understanding is the CJ's only got the 4 bolt. I know that there is a 4v that is not a CJ and they seem to have 2 bolt blocks.

I don't know anything about CJ or non-CJ 351C blocks, but as far as 351C blocks used in the Pantera, I can tell you for a fact that Panteras came with BOTH 2-bolt mains and 4-bolt mains, and there's no rhyme or reason for which came with which that I can tell. The original engine (never opened before I spun a rod bearing) in my 72 Pantera has 4-bolt mains. Yet the original and never previously rebuilt 351C in a friend's 72 Pantera that is only 11 serial numbers earlier than mine has 2-bolt mains.
