We live and learn huh? I always thought the motor was the same except for the pie tin. TNT Chrysler, Magnum Dodge, Comando Plymouth. Although I do seem to remember a super Comando. Now I want to learn more.
I have mechanical Aptitude. I can screw up anything.

Lets be clear here; Commando, TNT, Magnum, etc. are marketing names.....the motor is a U code 440 hp and is designated/identified by the E86 code which is a 440-4bbl HP motor whether you are speaking Plymouth, Dodge or Chryslerese.....it's interesting that it's called a TNT on the window sticker but it's the same motor Dave

"extra heavy duty handling package". 440hp and 426 Hemi cars got the beefiest suspension. .92 T-bars and such.
...standard stuff on a GTX.

Very cool car. GF7 with a gold pinstripe and rubber bumpers. Lets see pics! I believe the TNT label was typical on window stickers for 440 4bbl cars. Every original 71 GTX window sticker I've looked at was labeled the same. Is this car at Southern Motors?
