Only the Chevy SS models got standard PFDB with the exception of the Z/28. It's one of those "GM Mysteries:"

In 1970 why did the Buick GS 455 have optional 15" 60 series tires while the 442, GTO and Chevelle SS did not?

In 1970 why is the Chevelle SS restricted to F70x14 tires while the GTO, GS 455 and 442 got G70x14?

Why did Buick still offer redline tires on their GS 455 in 1970?

The 1969 Hurst/Olds used F60x15 RWL tires as STD equipment. Why were they never offered as an option on the 1970 to 1972 442?

In 1967 when Buick offered it's "junior muscle car" the GS 340, why wasn't the 4 speed manual trans made an option?
