An interesting observation I have made is that it seems to be an unusually high percentage of anniversary trucks seem to have a 327 or 396, and corresponding “GM” choke delete compared to other 68’s.

The GM logo choke delete plate was part of the Custom & Convenience and Custom Sport Truck packages that also upgraded the carb to electric choke along with their other interior & exterior upgrades on the 68's according to the factory literature I was reading from the GM Heritage Center on the 1968 trucks. Not sure if it did this on the 67's too. I would guess more Golden Anniversary trucks are more heavily optioned and have the C&C or CST option.
I haven't read any documentation that listed what was part of the Golden Anniversary package. Maybe it included the C&C or CST stuff as part of it.
