Theyre all pretty common bar the Muncie and to a lesser degree the T400.

Auto
M40 (Trimatic) - 253/308
M41 (Turbo 400) - 350

Manual
M20 - 253
M21 - 253/308
MC7 (Muncie) - 350

Cheers

I think M22 aussie 4spd would be the rarest. Most common would have to be the M20.

I doubt if an Aussie M22 was ever in a GTS as they were designed for commercials with the wide ratio.

They were optional though if memory serves me correctly, but whether anyone took up the option is another matter. M20 was also standard fitment to 6cyl HQ Sandman according to most info, yet both manual 6cyl HQ Sandmans ive recorded to date are plated as

1973 ordering procedure indicates M22 as the only 4spd for 6cyl commercial, but other literature for 1974 Sandman says the M20 is standard box.
