Default Re: 1970 nova suspension option?

I've noticed in the early released Chevrolet price books,ordering guides and catalogs,they stipulate that when the 1970 basic RPO Z-26 SS Nova was ordered with the standard 350/300HP engine,the F-41 performance suspension was NOT included or available,and of course neither was the F-40 suspension.
But at the same time,when you upgraded that same dog tracker with either the L-34 402/350HP,or L-78 402/375HP engines,you now automatically received the F-41 performance suspension package too.
Later dated materials reflect that the F-41 performance suspension is now standard on ANY 1970 Nova Super Sport,regardless of engine installed.
Has anyone seen physical evidence that reflects this on the earlier built Super Sport Novas?

Not to my knowledge. We feel that the F41 became available on non-SS Novas in '71 - but was specific to the SS models for '70.
