Base 350-4 barrel engine , I always thought it is a w31 at least thats
what all the literature and badgeing on the car says. Special heads and
10.5 to 1 comp. All rallyes should have a head with the #9 cast in
them. Aluminium intake ram air etc. Doesn't sound like a base 350-4bbl
cutlass engine, Lord said I'd be wrong once, mabey this is it.

The Rallye 350 was built as an insurance beater. Wild looks, but the
base Cutlass Supreme 350 4 barrel to qualify it for affordable insurance
premiums. There are rumored to have been a few factory W-31 Rallye
350's, but I have never seen one with enough documentation to convince
me it was factory. I have, of course, seen a bunch that were modified
later and one that had the W-31 stuff added by the selling dealer.
