No SCJs before Nov 13, 1968.
By Dave Shoe - 01/27/2002 9:36:08 PM; IP 216.243.158.161
The reinforced autothermic cast piston is the heart of the 428SCJ story, and the piston wasn't available until about November 13, 1968. As soon as the piston became available, both the SCJ and the CJ started using it, thus obsoleting the original CJ piston.

Ford may have offered some race 428's before this time, but they were forged-pistoned engines which never got a production-line engine designation.

Also, keep in mind that Fordapparently offerd Drag-Pack cars with 390s and other engines in the years prior to the 428SCJ. These earlier Drag-Pack cars were not well known, and I believe they used stock engines with a reinforced drivetrain and steep gears.
