The Deuces came with a BB crossmember, not sure why but we think its a carryover from the '69 COPO 9737 which was BB based. The '70 Deuces all have AM Radios w/ windshield antenna's, I think even the FM cars got 'em - but got ground straps. Can't tell if the speedo unit is from '72 or just the bezel.</div></div>

Isn't the white lettering on the cluster and radio dial a dead give-away that the entire cluster has been changed to a '72? Even the radio knobs are 71-72.

If they used a big block crossmember would the transmission sit crooked in the car since the engine wasn't offset, or did the car use the big block frame stands?

The green lettering in a '70 commonly appears white due to camera flash, so we can't immediately jump to your conclusion.

The BB xmember simply kicks the tail of the trans a 1/2 inch to the right, makes installing the bolts a little challenging but otherwise you just muscle it over.
