This is absolutely correct.

When I ordered my '87 it was placed on "stop order", because Mr Gasket was buying out Hurst and GM wasn't sure they were going to get enough shifters to support volume production.

My truck was built on a temporary deviation to use up the 100 or so transmissions that we already had in house.
