In '68 the 4-spd manual transmission was a "no-charge" OPTION on the 440 b-bodies, but it required you to purchase (mandatory OPTION for $138.90) an "axle package" (w/3.54:1 sure-grip & DANA 60) which also upgraded the cooling system (26" radiator, 7-blade fan, torque-drive fan clutch). In 1968 it appears "Hi-Capacity Radiator" was the extent of the hype.
