The 702 V12 was an off the shelf unit at the time from GMC. Don't 
know the details... I just saw them arriving in the crates.

Hmmm... Once you shoehorned one of those long blocks into the 
Pantera, I reckon your right elbow would be resting on the left front 
rocker cover! Those were loonnnggg engines! But 702 cubes would 
definitely be 'interesting' in a Pantera to say the least....

:-)))

FWIW,
