Default CY & CX 400THM: differences & similarities

Using a 1969 "Hydra-matic Production Parts" list, I charted the differences and similarities between the "CY" & "CX" automatic transmissions, as well the difference between the "CY" & "CX" and the standard 400 automatic transmission.

For the year 1970:
*TH400 CY Trans. was coded for the LS6 Chevelle,& Corvette LS5.
Higher-shift point and stronger bands & springs.I believe a thicker shaft as well?
*TH400 CW Trans. was coded for the L78 Chevelle-Nova-Camaro,& LT-1 Camaro-Nova.
*TH400 CR & CS Trans. was coded for the LS5 Chevelle-Monte Carlo,& Corvette w/Transitorizied Ignition.
*TH400 CF Trans. was coded for the L34 Chevelle-Camaro-Nova.
*TH400 CK Trans. was coded for the 300HP 350cid Corvette.

Chuck, the comparison is between the CX vs. the CY, not the CW version. The CW was used in the L78's, LT1's etc...

Ray Morrison sent me some more 400-THM info. It was an application chart for 1969, so I went ahead and ran it through Excel so it's easier to digest...
