As far as I know, every RAIV car had 3.73s, and if it was a 4-speed it was an M20. I don't think the M21 was available on a IV T/A in '70.

What we are crunching is the fact that some RamAir3 70 TA's with 4 speed and 3.73 Axle Gears show it plainly on the Invoice (including the mandatory HD Radiator) -
and some documented 3.73 cars do not - and only show the HD Radiator

We are trying to possibly nail down "why"

The "why" is looking like it relates to whether the car was :

3.73 with M20 Wide Ratio 4spd (Performance Axle Option and HD Rad on Invoice)
or
3.73 with M21 Close Ratio 4spd (Just the HD Radiator on Invoice)
That seems like a very logical hypothesis. When I have a chance, I will have to dig through my stuff and see if it all "makes sense" through that lens. Agreed - sure would be nice to have more build sheets and GM Canada docs to cross reference!
