In 1968 my ex-father-in-law was a salesman at the local Pontiac dealer, C. W. Smiths, in Brantford, Ont. He tried to order me a new 68 SD with the L78 and I can confirm it was not available. I had previously went to the Chevrolet dealer and they could get a Chevelle for me with the L78, so he thought he could get the same option on the Beaumont; no such luck. I ended up buying my 68 Stratochief with a 427 4spd at that time from him. I eventually bought, and still have, a 68 Beaumont SD as well, however it is only the 350 hrs.
