    Why there wasn't a 427 for 1968.

    ... and wait, there's STILL more ... Marti even backs up the what-if theory: “Ford might have built them in such small numbers that they never showed up as a Code, kind of like the ’67 Shelbys that had an S engine code (390) and were, in fact, packing the 428.”...

    Black GT/CS on eBay

    If it's a C code 289 car, then probably not (Ford made factory GTs with J codes 302-4v, X and S codes 390-2v & 4v, and R codes 428-4v. Note: some of the GT options, eg HD suspension, could have been special ordered from the factory or even dealer installed on a C code). If you guys like this...
