I'll try, but it's not happening soon....
Not an easy topic and I have enough pet projects.

I agree with the 6767 issue,all Chevrolet materials I've seen report it should be a 9.
I have two actual 9 tags here as well.
I can not confirm if this typo was made by the author of the list or the source he got it from,but it does look like an error.

Take this with a grain of salt as my records are not as complete as others.
I'm finding the Muncie M-20 #3870372 was installed behind the 1966-67 396cid &amp; 427cid vehicles only.
It also shows when the 1966 Passenger series got a 327cid,it got Muncie M-20 #3884603 (Not used behind L-79).
A friend of mine who owns a 1967 327cid Passenger series has an M-20 w/#3916108 tag on it.
I'm sure crash could help narrow this down some more.

Re: MUNCIE METAL TAG ID
 
That's a Muncie 4spd. wide ratio 2:52:1 as well.
Used originally in:
*1968 Passenger series w/8.15 X 15 tires w/3:55 axle AND when 396cid or 427cid. equipped.
*1968 Corvette w/o Posi or 3:55 axle.

And Recommended replacement in:

It was soon superceded in 1970 by Muncie #3964507 for same applications.
