Yes GM A bodys 68-72 for sure and I also believe the G body is correct.

The Saginaw box will bolt into nearly any GM car from the 1960s to the 1980s, as well as a lot of non-GM cars. The issues are the hydraulic connections and the input shaft. The early boxes used inverted flare fittings. The later ones used o-ring fittings. The input shaft differences can require a different rag joint to match.

To add to Joe's post I also believe the internal stops vary from model to model.
