Re: found my vin on here says its a yenko help
Post a pic of cowl tag or give us all the data from it.
A 67 4K is special and has the CHANCE of being the proverbial needle in the haystack!

I spoke to Warren, (the guy that holds the paperwork for the 67 Yenkos) On multiple occasions Warren looked for paperwork on that car and could not find anything to verify that it was a 427 conversion. The only thing that could be confirmed was that it was modified and that it being an actual 427 conversion was mere speculation...hence I passed on the car. The paperwork that was available revealed receipts that total far less than it would have cost for the car to be a bonafied 427 conversion...the receipts were par with a modified as opposed to a 427 conversion Perhaps the paperwork miraculously fell out of the sky indicating the car as a 427 conversion as opposed to a modified car...

[/ QUOTE ] It seems that you have bad information. The original paperwork clearly shows that this is a 450hp conversion, as well as a few other interesting items. Confirmation by the original owner and the original Fred Gibb salesperson are nice too.
