I have seen the 2 traction bars on 1967 Pontiac 400 Firebirds w/4 speed. I have also seen the dual traction bars on the 1967 Firebird Sprint 6 cars also equiped with the 4 speed.

This info is from the firstgenfirebird.org page....
67s breakdown:

OHC-6 1bbl auto. none (exception is rear end ratio 323 or higher) OHC-6 1bbl man. RH side
OHC-6 4bbl. auto. RH side
OHC-6 4bbl. man. both sides
V-8 2&4bbl. auto. RH side
V-8 2&4bbl. man. both

I also found that the rear end ratio or type in this case determined the option of one or two bars or radius rods. i.e. if a car has a 4 pinion rear end it will have both bars. this is for posi and open 4 pinion rears.

traction bars are 67 only.

i owned a rough 67 firebird with a 12 bolt and 2 traction bars, was going to build a drag car out of it, dug up some info showing it to be a 400 4spd and sold it instead.
