RE: 68 cougar 390 2v By Tim B - 07/26/2001 4:07:46 PM; IP 152.163.206.204 There were 1,217 HTs and 2,037 XR-7s (all C6), info courtesy of Kevin Marti's COUGAR .......BY THE NUMBERS. I never understood who it should appeal to. Budget Minded Big Block? It was less expensive than a S 4V 390. It sold in similar numbers with the C6 in both (956 & 2,551) so it's not really rare. Less performance, better gas mileage, good for towing perhaps. Or maybe it was for someone who wanted to add aftermarket parts above and beyond the factory S code . Even 30+ years later it's a good idea! The Edelbrock packages will really wake it up :-) Save the unique parts just in case.
