i was talking standard equipment (base engine, trans, etc). other gears options are obviously dependent on configuration/package. GM doesn't always play by its own rules and who is to know if a previous owner didn't do some customizing?

look at the gas tank size on the burb. according to the brochure all C/K 10/20 came with a 21 gallon tank, and i believe that because it took about that to fill it up after i ran out of gas once. but according to the glove box handbook the C20 and K20 burb should have a 23 gallon tank. just 2 extra gallons (and an extra part number) doesn't make much sense from a marketing and money making standpoint. they had the 45 gal tavel tank for those needing more capacity!
