My other Windsor cars seem to dictate that was the case.

Early yes. By later in the year, Windsor coded a lot more. You start to see the change in May. (what was coded, when it was coded and even where it was coded on the varied by year, plant and time of year)

Vinyl top.....
The bottom line is, anyone care to guess at how many out of the 352,844 units were 383-4 Super Commando or Super Commando powered?
I don't consider a rust holder an option...

Mopar did....
And?
How popular were the Commando series of engines in the 69 Fury?

Thank you. I did state, "If I remember correctly".
And another example from a car I got several parts from. The seller kept the engine.
And the unmolested engine, note the HP exhaust manifolds and the unlicensed air cleaner.

Wouldn’t that look like a sombrero???
Don’t forget e bodies get twisted up with the 330 vs 335 horse motor too. I had a ‘70 grand coupe w a 330 horse 383 4 barrel. It ran pretty hard. I just chalk it up to marketing...

Okay, here is my five cents worth, if the engine blocked is stamped with a "HP" on the pad, I'm calling it a HP engine. Did the 330 horse engines have HP stamped on them?
Well crap so my Newport isn’t a HP?

It actually reinforces the opposite. It shows the C body 383-4 doesn't have the high performance cam like the optional E86 440 does.
The C body 383-4 has the same cam as the 383-2 bbl. IF it had the high performance cam, then it would have been the same assembly and it rated at 335 horse like the B/E body assembly.

From 68-70? No.
E63 engine, H code...YES it is.
My 2 cents...
Yes the 383 HP in C bodies used the same cam as 2bbl. Hence 5hp drop versus the Road Runner.
But...
The HP engine had higher compression 10:1 versus the 9.2 in the 2bbl. Hence premiun fuel requirement.
As we all know the HP engine in the C's came with HP manifolds (right side same as B&E bodies).
As mentioned,the B/E 383 HP came with the 440 camshaft.
In regards to the air cleaner,correct me if I am wrong, 69 saw a shift from dual snorkel to unsilenced version.
Both are C body correct depending on build date and/or plant or what was available during manufacturing.
The 440 375 horse still used the dual snorkel air cleaner.
Hope this helps.

Thanks, the only thing I would add is that my late production 440 HP had the unsilenced air cleaner.
