They made one 1968 Z28 convertible and he's been offered over $1 million for it but didn't sell. Chevrolet made some sets of small block hemi heads in 69 to see if they would work better for the TransAm racing. In the end, a set of ported stock 186 heads made just as much power so they abandoned the hemi heads. I think there are 3-5 motors out there with these heads. But they don't seem to bring any big money like you might think. They are a pain in the butt to keep running and there are no replacement parts. Different cam, different intake, different headers, different distributor and firing order. Cool stuff though.
