Yeah, there's a lot of bull droppings around when you go to buy stuff. Sad thing is, the current owner believes it, hook line and sinker. One of my younger sisters bought a '66 Chevelle with a "4-bolt main 350". When it came time for a rebuild, I pulled it out and found a small main journal 327. That's what got put back in, too. She was really disappointed, but had been driving it for many years, none the wiser.
