Well all I had to go on was what the owner told me ... I know that starting in 68 a 428 was a dealer installed option in firebirds , I have been to other shows and seen a few ... I did not know of any 428s being put in the Tempest bodys either ...

Nice pics "Toothy". I love them old Yaks. If I'm not mistaken the Pontiac engine line goes 326, 350, 389, 400, 421, 428 & 455.

true in 1967 the 326 ,389 and 421 went up to 350 , 400 and 428 .....Like I said all I have to go on was what the guy told me ... He was a guy that was in at least his 60s and did not act like he was pulling my leg ... but .......

1967 Pontiac Catalina






Comments: After just one year, the 2+2 reverted back to an option package on the Catalina. A new 428 cid V8 with 360 bhp was the standard engine, while performance fans could choose the new Quadra-Power 428 V8 with 376 bhp. There was also a slight restyling which included disappearing windshield wipers. Despite these changes, sales were down dramaticly for 1967. This would be the last year for the 2+2 option on the Catalina, although the 428 V8 would still be available on regular Catalinas.


Production: 1,768
Engines: 428 V8 360 bhp @ 4600 rpm, 472 ft-lb @ 3200 rpm. 428 V8 376 bhp @ 5100 rpm, 462 ft-lb @ 3400 rpm.

That is correct, but for a GTO, Lemans, or Tempest it was not an option till 68.
