So, if you see a smaller than 1 1/8" sway bar on the front, it is not likely a GTO as it is doubtful someone would install a smaller sway bar.

A "T" engine coded 72 Lemans is fairly uncommon, most were 350s.

Good info, Steve.

Also, the GTO came standard with a 7/8" rear sway bar, and a LeMans would come without a rear bar - unless special ordered with it - VERY uncommon.
