Re: how rare are the 68 big block trucks?
I am going to guess that only about 10% of our trucks had BB's.

I didn't even know they had BBC's in 67 and 68. Is it a 396?

Big block started in 68 for Chevy. Don't have my red book but that book will give a % of 68 trucks that came with big block.

If I remember my facts...In 1970 only about 5% of the trucks came with a BB.

Re: how rare are the 68 big block trucks?
Being the first year of production for a big block pickup,a`68 big block would be the lowest number.Overall production increased alot with each year,too.
