Nope; the 709, 7040, 7044, 9090 and 7094 weree 36 bit machines and ran
IBSYS; the 7070, 7072 and 7074 were decimal machines and there was no
IBSYS for them. Perhaps you're thinking of the 1410 and 7010, but
those are also not 36-bit machines.

There was a S/360 simulator that ran on the 7094. Perhaps that's what
you're thinking of.

Note my reference to MFT II supplanting MFT. They did not exist
concurrently in a single release of OS/360, the way that PCP, MFT and
MVT did.
