There is no definitive records.
However, the first run of Comp and S/C cars (51 of them) came with 427SO. A few early cars had lightweights; most were standard 427SO. Comp cars had single 4-bbl; S/C's were mixed as per customer order...either 1x4 or 2x4.
First run of streetcars (approx 100) had 427SO and, they say, some TO. The standard for street cars was 2x4.
Next run of street (at least the second 100) had 428, 2x4.
Somewhere in the last batch they switched back to 427, 2x4.
