Re: V8 in '68?
Vin starts with "CE", base engine is 307 2bbl. Options are:
327 4bbl 396 4bbl Both 4bbl are auto (divorced) choke, the 307 2bbl would have a manual choke. I hope for your sake it's a "CS" with the optional 292.  If it's a GMC, same options, except you can get a CM vin which is standard 306 V6, optional 351 V6.

I believe it was either a 327 or a 396.
