"...actual Powerglides with the BOP bell housing..."

Yeah, I've only actually seen 2, in person. One was in a '70 or '71 Esprit Firebird, IIRC. It was in a U-Pull-It yard, in Shreveport Louisiana, & still bolted to a 350 Pontiac engine. I bought what was left & brought it home with me.

The other was in a '70 or '71 Tempest/Lemans, also in a wreckin yard, in Bastrop Louisiana.

Found some pics online. Apparently, some had all the holes drilled. Some had only the BOP holes drilled. Some of those early '70's Pontiacs came with a Chevy inline six engine. Don't know if those with auto trans came with a normal Chevy PG, or one of the dual pattern PG models.
