poop ANSWER: Wow really intelligent response! Anyhow, they are as follows: 400/180hp Automatic: YA,YU (standard L-78 engine) 400/220hp Automatic: X7 (L78-W72 engine) 400/220hp Manual: WC (L78-W72 engine) There were also two block castings in 1978 the standard passanger car "500557" and the revised "XX481988". Some of the standard L78 cars also received the XX block, it was basicly luck of the draw. The L78-W72 cars are believed to have all gotten the revised (stronger) XX block casting.
