I was wondering rhe same thing

[@extremedrivr]

I think the 496 is the 502 for the same reason the 396 was actually a 402 in disguise. That was because of the beurocrats at GM said nothing larger than 400 CI in mid sized cars until 1970 rolled around and that policy got lifted.

I would recommend including several examples of their errors paired with the correct information. It won't be difficult. These are really sloppy.

[@jayelbee1111]

Each GM division used to design, engineer and built their own engine. For example, each division had a 350 V-8, but each division quietly interchanged engines between GM models. You would see a Pontiac equipped a Chevrolet engine. A Buick equipped with a Oldsmobile engine. An Oldsmobile equipped with a Cadillac engine. A Chevrolet truck equipped with a GMC engine. Customers complained about that, so GM had to create Powertrain division, who now build engines for all GM brands. It would be nice if each GM brand design their own engines again.

That big Dual Six/V-12 was a big one. For sheer iron bulk, not many bigger and heavier that will go in a medium/heavy weight truck (dump truck, fire engine,) Lots of these were used as water pumps on farms. This, of course, was before there was something like a light weight diesel. But, pretty cool none the less...
