Default "CY"

So in 1972 the Z28 had a CY turbo 400 yellow ID tag with tail piece code #8624486. See attached missing photo from original thread indicating that it is a CY not an MY. Also would it be the high shift point? Another note it does not have the "T350?" stamped on the short tail shaft. I believe is the designation if it's not a T475.

Im getting a bit crossed up here. SS69Chevelle indicates "Y" designation as being with the big block list & mr70 indicates CY being used up to 1972. Why would you have a at best 5500 rpm engine paired up with a 6200-6400 "Y" designated shift point transmission?
