First things first. There are no "Big or Small" block Pontiac's. They all share a common design and general dimensions from the 265 all the way up to the 455. The exception is the 265 and 301, which are short deck. 350-400 cu. inch. engines have a 3.00" main where the 421-455 engines have a 3.25" main.
On to your block. The 9799914 is was a 400 cubic inch block that was cast in 1970. The 1970 Ram Air III used this block with 4-bolt main caps. Everything else got the block without the 4-bolt main caps, but were drilled for them. Your application code stamped on the right front of the block near the timing cover will narrow it down for you.
Hope this helps.

The firing order for the Pontiac 400 engine is that the small block powers the big block.
First its not called a big block, Pontiac never made a small block. it is just called a Pontiac 350. as far as tourque i t ranges from 150 to 400 depending on the year and trim
There is no "small block" , "big block" with Pontiac engines. The physical size is the same from 326ci to the 455.
Pontiac uses same block no small or big, Chevy describes their engines small or big
Pontiac had no big blocks. all Pontiac engines are the same size externally (except the 301, it was a little smaller.)
There is no Big block or small block in Pontiacs. They were the same size. "67 did have the 400 and 400 HO available for the Firebird.
Pontiacs didnt make big blocks.
GM big blocks start with the 400. There are two 400s, a small block & a big block. The 350 is a small block, not a big block. Firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2
455 c.i.d.
Depends on which Pontiac engine you are referring to. Any GM engine 400 cubic inches and under are considered a small block with two exceptions. The 396 is a big block and there were certain 400's that are big blocks. Two versions of the 400 were built.WRONG. All Pontiacs from 326-455 are the same size block externally. The only major difference is that the 326, 350, 389, and 400 have a 3" main bearing size. The 421, 428, and 455 are 3.25" mains. Now...if you are talking about comparing a Pontiac block to say a Chevy block....the Pontiac is larger than a small block and slightly smaller than a big block.
Where the big radiator hose connects to the front of the block.
