Jeremy,
You are asking "how high is up"? SS had many permutations in 72. If you search this site for Chevrolet Customer service, You will find an 800 number. Call them & give them the VIN of your 72 and they will send you a package of info specific to 72 models. The info won't be specific to your elky, but should give you an excellent idea of what options could be ordered. in 72.

If you want to know if your elky is a true SS, the only way to know for sure is if you have an original build sheet, protecto-plate , bill-of-sale OR IF the 5th digit of your VIN is W. Good luck in your search for info.

The W actually denotes the LS5 trucks..gotta uphold honor for us 1972 U VIN Z15 LS3's!

Here is a good read from TC's home page,I'm not sure its going to have all the info you need but I'm sure it'll be a help.

Your lucky being its a 72 as they are easier to document as a true SS,if the vin indicates a 454 you're in.
