Only the last two years of the B20 had 8-bolt flywheels, the '74 and '75 model years. In the U.S. market, those were all F models, with low-compression heads and mechanical fuel injection. In Canada, a carbureted version was also sold.

'69-'73 are all 6-bolt, using the identical crank as a B18. If the head doesn't have injector ports, it's almost certainly a B20B (we didn't have the A in the U.S.). It's true that the 130 was built until 1970, but they were not sold in the U.S. -- '68 was the last model year here, and it had a B18. Unless the car was brought in from outside the U.S., odds are the motor in question was not its original motor.

(All this assumes that YOU are in the U.S. -- apologies if I'm assuming that incorrectly.)
