The T code 200 was still available in the 1970 model year.
In 69 and 70 both 6 cyl engines were available, the 200 was the base engine on all models except the Mach 1 and Boss cars (obviously). The larger 250 was an option along with the 8 cyl motors.
In 1971 the 200 was gone and the base engine was the L code 250. Because of this all 71-73 cars were 5 lugs from the factory too. Due to the Mustang becoming even bigger and heavier in 71 and with government emmissions regulations starting to take place with all motors starting to be downgraded in HP and torque the "little 6" 200 would have been a waste in those big bodied cars.
