Yes. The first 50 Yenko COPO 427 cars were X66 trim.

X11 can be anything with style trim (even L6 engines) except Bigblock or Z/28. COPO 427 can be X11.

Yes that is correct, never a 396 in a X11.

The COPO's were sort of an option to a base car, like the X44 (no style trim) or the X11 with style trim or RS. The first batch of COPO's for Yenko were X66 (bigblock, no trim)

You should know that the X-codes really didn't have anything to do with the engines or options on the car. It was a designation on how the body should be painted or what trim it should have. X33 and X77 were Z/28 and required stripes. X22 and X66 were 396 and they had a black rear panel. X11 and X44 didn't have any special paintings to the body. X55 were 350 SS without style trim but with the rear fender moldings.
