You do not remove the shifter by removing the pins on the side. You push down on the retainer in the center and twist counter clockwise and it pops out.
Yes the motor mounts are the same for the K series trucks. They are the same for '63-'72 C and K series trucks 10-30.
I believe the suffix code is stamped on a pad near the base of the distributor. Not sure where the date code is on the I6's

Also thanks for help on ignition parts, I use NAPA a lot too.
Are the engine mounts same for K10?
I sure wish they handled the engine a little more carefully, bent some of the parts like fan.
Where is engine date code on the 292?

I don't know anything about a 'rare' 2 tone version SM420. I do know that the 3/4 ton version has a larger cluster gear shaft. That could also be a year difference thing. Being an advantage or not depends on what you plan to use the trans for. Most guys don't like the SM420 or the SM465 and they pull them out for an auto trans, a car 4 speed, or a 5 speed.

As is obvious I am a novice on this stuff.
