I was talking to a buddy today and he said that he thought the 1969-1/2 six pack Runners and Bee's only got the Dana with the stick car but I thought all 1969-1/2 six pack 440 cars got the Dana with a 4.10 gear which was in both the auto and stick. And we both thought that 3.91 was the largest gear number size you could get in the 8-3/4 even in the B-body ? I know the A-body offered the 3.91 as the tallest gear in the 8-3/4 but I cant remember for sure if that was the same in the B-body. Can anyone shed any light on what is correct and thanks. Ron

According to this Hotrod Magazine article, ALL 1969 1/2 A12 Roadrunners (6bbl), wether Automatic or Manual Transmission, received the Dana 60: http://www.hotrod.com/cars/featured/mopp-0902-1969-m-code-a12-road-runner/Behind this was the only driveline option on the buildsheet (either a 727 Torqueflite or an A833 New Process four-speed), and every A12 got a Dana 60 with 4.10 gearing and 11-inch brakes. The steel 15-inch wheels with redline rubber and no hubcaps finished it; these A12 cars were the only regular production model ever offered this way.

All 69.5 A12's were Dana 60 with 4.10 , 4 speed or auto.
I'm to lazy to look up when the Super Track pack started but if you got an Automatic with Super Track Pack it would have been an 8 3/4 with a 4.10 , not sure if that started in 69 , but it was like that in 70-71
running up my post count some more .

I want my fair share

4.10s were available in 4x4 trucks with the 8.75 axle. Perhaps they could have been ordered in cars as well.
