L98 Four bolt?

Not sure where to put this question but hopefully it will only take one response to get my answer.

Ill second that.

You will find some people that say they have a friend of a friend of a friend that has one, or someones Corvette came that way, etc etc... but in reality none of the thirdgens came with them and I dont think you will find a vette with it either aside from the few factory freaks. IMO it doesnt matter much anyway.

If you're really worried about strength you should get a 2 bolt so you can drill it for 4 bolt splayed caps.
