Just scanned through the MkIV build schedule and the 427-related cars (for those who might be interested) are:

1000 - customer supply 427 side-oiler
1011 - customer supply 427
1055 - 427
1079 - 427 (later customer fit)
1244 - 427 mounts
1245 - 427 mounts
1250 - 427 mounts
1251 - 427 mounts
1256 - 429
1275 - 427 not fitted
1276 - 427 not fitted
1281 - 427 customer supply
1290 - 427
1301 - 427 race
1303 - 427 side-oiler
1304 - 427
1318 - 428 (Frua engine and trans)

So more than I thought!! Also several have since been converted to 427 power, such as 'Le Monstre' recently sold in the UK via Nostalgia, with a 680bhp 7.6-litre Ford Motorsport lump. I am assured it suitably mental and gives circa 4mpg..........
