Do Gen. V 454's have siamesed cylinders?

According to the GM crate engine website, the Gen. V & VI 454's are NON-siamesed blocks......

Are you sure about that? As far as I know, a 502 is a 4.5" bore, and that requires siamesed bores.

Hey MassVette, is that a power steering reservior in front of our master cylinder? Which pump and res. are you running? I'm looking for a setup like that.

All the GEN V and VI 502's are siamesed as Joe and Massvette said but the 454's are not. Don't know about the Bowtie 454.
