window sticker vs RPO confustion.

If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
I recently sent to Pontiac Historical services for a package on my 84 TA. I received the biloing invoice and material for my car by VIN. When I check the RPO''s in the console I come up with codes for 3.73 limited slip, but it is not listed as an option on my invoice. I know this was a $ option. Why is it noe listed on my invoice? I need to get this answered before sending in for a window sticker, but I would sure like to have that option on the sticker--should definatley add to the uniqueness and value?
Thanks

the PHS won't list ALL RPO's but will list the optional ones only.

if it does not list GT4 (3.73 posi) but it does list WS6, it should be fine, because 3.73 posi is one component among many components bundled together as the "WS6 package".

hope this helps

P.S.: the window sticker won't show GT4 either. but if you have WS6 (which includes GT4), then it will show WS6.

Just like TR9 which is the lamp group: the window sticker will show TR9 along with a few indented sub-listings under it, all WITHOUT RPO's, but each of those NON-RPO'ed listings does in fact have an RPO (like UT1 U25 U27 U29, etc.) which are all left out, just like GT4 is left out.

i hope this is helpful and not confusing

Thanks! I have GT4 listed on the RPO sheet, but WS6 is listed on my RPO sheet and window sticker as "performance package"

sorry I forgot about G80 too. that's the one that specifies positraction.

so the rpo sheet will have bothGT4 and G80, but PHS and window sticker will have neither.
