Someone`s FB post, just wondering how the car would be equipped as a base BH Barracuda but with an H code 340?

"Time for another odd barracuda question.  I have a 1972 Barracuda that the Vin is BH23H2B so this is a Barracuda with optional 340 engine. Can anyone verify what hood would come on this car flat or twin scoop hood ?  if twin would it have Cuda 340 or 340 4 barrel hood badge ? Would it have dual exhaust through the exhaust pan?   Would it have a rear sway bar like must Cudas?  Mine does not.  I would like to hear from an owner of a original car not one that is put together.  I'm at a loss it has no fender tag or broadcast sheet.  So far I know it's a 340 car with auto on the column a/c 3 speaker dash  STD dash rear power disk brakes and steering rear defogger vinyl roof blue int blue sky exterior and the rare optional power sun roof.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks it has a 440 in it now found two chrome Cuda tips and aftermarket dual exhaust pan and 4 twin scoop inserts in car."

Wow !....sunroof makes that one rare.
I found this 1970 BH23H0B over 20 years ago in back of a gas station.
340 automatic, red with black vinyl top, flat hood, Standard 120 dash, black bucket interior with 6 way drivers seat.
No tag or sheet , body numbers matched.

And yet these were not supposed to have been built, however, I've seen evidence of at least 2 others.
