The TA's may have followed close to that same "take rate".
My opinion - which isn't at all true on the TA - the 3.73 upgrade should have been the same charge/option code as the GTO when they went from 3.55 to 3.90 or 4.33
Axle-Special Order for $2.11
The $10.53 upgrade charge on the TA axle is exorbitant.
It may be like Keith mentioned as one possibility - that the M20 3.73 combo got the $10.53 charge, and the M21 3.73 combo did not.
I think that could be the root factor.

But would be cool to figure it all out with brass tacks nailed along the edges.
The 03C car that 72projectbird has - would be good to know the invoice date and see where it falls in with the 3/31 and 4/10 invoices.
I have never checked to see whether my Ram3 4spd 3.73 TA has M20 or M21.
That one has been mothballed for over 30 years now.

My formula has the 3.73 gears. The MSRP was 10.53 but the actual charge amount was 7.80 and it was a M-21 trans. Not sure why we can’t compare a ram air formula which is what seems to be the formula of choice is to a T/A.
