Because they could not "just pick some part off of another GM brand" to do
that exact job, they went with what was available at the time. Just my best
guess, anyway.
They engineered some weird stuff in the 70's. Ask me about Converted
gasoline engines to diesel, set crosswise on top of the transaxle in the
front end of Olds "C" bodies. You had to remove the motor mount fasteners
to get at the glow plugs and injectors. WHAT A PITA that was.
