Default u joint numbers not matching up

Hello all. Well here's what I have . 74 l82 with 4spd. Im replacing all the u joints amoung other things (never planned of course) Now all sources say my drive shaft should have a 1310 style u joint but it takes the 1330 style. Which is fine. Just wondering why it doesn't match what is said to be there according to all sources I've seen. The slip yoke says 1119 on it. Definitely a muncie 4spd. According to dennydriveshaft site that yolk fits a auto trans or m22. The dive shaft yokes say" spicer a3r 29 " on one end the other end says" spicer a3r 30". Drive shaft and half shafts all use strap style not u bolts. Just a little confused any insight would be great.
Thanks Brent

All 63-67 driveshafts use 1310 u-joints
All 68-70 4 speed driveshafts use 1310 u-joints
All 68-70 auto driveshafts use 1330 u-joints
All 71-79 driveshafts use 1330 u-joints.

All halfshafts 63-79 use 1350 u-joints

Spicer new number
1350 = 5-1350X
1330 = 5-1330X
1310 = 5-1310X
