Seems like that was a common issue with these crate Ls7's. I know of a local guy who bought one years ago for his '71 Firebird Formula. Same thing. First summer, spun a main. 2nd guy bought 2 crate Ls7's. First went in his '73 454 Vette. It had issues as well. Second one when into his racecar Chevette. This time he had it inspected. Sure enough, it was not correct and was fixed before first start up.

So of the 3 that I personally know of, all 3 were screwy right from GM.
