Can anyone tell from this photo if the 3.15 in my 74 Javelin is a Twin-Grip or not? Thanks!

Yes I did look but can't see enough of it in the car to match to those photos. If I had to guess I would say mine is the one on the right in those photos based on the shape of the parts I can see.

Except for the bearings which mean nothing,  the whole thing is in your picture.

Simple - put the car in park, raise one wheel and try to turn it.
