Default Re: 1968 NF2 ?

If it was cancelled 6-3-68 then it would have only been 2 months of production... so the production figures could be correct.

N10 is the dual exhaust, only available with the 327, available the whole year. Included with the SS's and Z28's (hence not an option).

NF2 replaced N61 in 1968. It was available the whole year. I'm not the expert on it, but I recall it included resonators for a different sound. It basically modified the dual exhaust.

Not sure if you could get NF2 *and* N10 on a 327 car.

I've never seen a 327 (LF7 or L30) documented with NF2. Several 327 cars with N10.
I don't have 68 ordering info handy to dig into the details of what engines NF2 was available with, but I wouldn't assume it was available on 327's just yet...

Argh. I messed up.
We know of 2 documented L30 cars with NF2. And it's now clearer to me that a car had either N10 or NF2.

Rich Fields adds:
Parts manual covers both systems in 68, and both applied to 327 or 350. The 327 also used the same pipe diameter as the 350.
Z28 had the NF2 equivalent system, but different front pipes (not sure why, the rest of the system was the same.)
