The "200", "350" "400" are related to the torque capabilities of the transmissions. The difference in the diesel versions of the transmissions usually had to do with the damper springs in the lockup clutch and valving/pressure controls.

The 4.3 V6 was offered in the FWD cutlass. I'm pretty sure it had a TH125C behind it. I don't remember ever seeing a RWD version of that engine.

I did work at an Oldsmobile dealer in the 1980's doing driveline work.
