Default T-37 and GT-37 Experts?

I just bought a 1970 T-37, I'll be picking it up at Norwalk next week. I intend to make it into F.A.S.T. racer which will need to look entirely stock.

I'll have tons of questions as I do a quick cosmetic restoration on it.

What motors were available in the T-37? Was the 330 HP 400 available or did you have to get the GT-37 for that? Would that have had the dual snorkle air cleaner and chrome valve covers?

Does anyone repro the T-37 stickers for the sides? Mine is an earlier car with the stickers under the Tempest emblem.

Does anyone repro the vinyl floor mat? I want to keep the total stripper look.

I'm considering the idea of cloning it (tribute car!) into a GT-37 just so I could put on the cool rally stripe.
What differentiated the GT-37 other than the hood pins, Rallys, dual exhaust and badging? I know the standard tranny in the Gt-37 was the 3 speed with floor shifter, what happened when you ordered an automatic? Did you get column shift?

What was the biggest tire available in 1970? G70-14? When did they step up to optional 15"s?

I think that's it for now.
