I'd be interested in seeing those sources. Are they factory sources or aftermarket? Can you post them?
These are factory/dealer...here ya go...

Must be a mistake in the listing because there is no standard axle listed for the 440 with manual trans. Only optional rears.

It was always my understanding that with respect to the GTX, RT, & 440/426 Charger, there was no standard axle when ordering a 4 speed...You had a choice of the two axle packages, and that was it.

But the 440/426 4-speed "required" a Dana, didn't it? What if you did't want a 3.54/3.55 or 4.10 ratio could you get a Dana with a 3.23 or other ratio?

The 055 radiator now cleaned and painted, with the 305 8 (October 31, 1968) date code. The GTX has a C16/December 16, 1968 Scheduled Production Date so it is close enough to be the original and I still believe it is the original radiator to the car.
Why didn't you keep the original California air cleaner on the car? Are you installing chrome exhaust tips?

Don't want to go OT but I like the sound of the unsilenced air cleaner cover and the exhaust tips and even thinking about putting an "air grabber" system on it. Had the dual snorkel on it.....another thing is that darn big dual snorkel air filter cover his HEAVY too and I'm sure it doesn't flow enough air to feed the Holley 770 under the unsilenced cover on there now  took the stock road wheels off and going to redo them, put a set of G-70 red lines on them and go do a pure stock event or two......do I have to put the dual snorkel cover back on for that  
Oh this is the GTX with the 055 radiator, 4-speed, 3.54 Dana to keep this OT

Doesn't make any sense from an engineering perspective, but it does have some twisted logic from a sales perspective.
