What couldn’t you order on a SSP that you could get on a RR? Specifically 73/74. Could you get a 440 or bulge hood with the SSP? Did the SSP come with upgraded suspension like the RR? How close could you option an SSP to a RR? Enlighten me.
 
I know you could not get a 340 in a 73 SSP but you could get a 400-4.

Not sure about a 74 360-4.

My bet is the SSP cost more than a RR, so why bother.

Probably interesting reading at hamtramckhistorical.
 
The best place to start for questions like this is reviewing the factory data books and salesman guides posted in Hamtramck Historical library. You can see side by side comparisons as to what was standard and optional on both models.

The 1970 Hamtramck Registry Library Page (1970 - 1974)
I’m lazy. That’s why I asked the question. Thought someone with an SSP would know the answer off the top of their head.
