No way to know, but mine is a 300, so we know that there was at least one.

A lot fewer 300hp than 250hp
Some guy selling a 62 powerglide 250 hp on eBay said there were only a thousand something built. That would leave less than 500 with 300hp. Corvette Black book says 1532 powerglides total. I think mine was a 250hp but someone changed it to a ZZ4 355hp.
I would like to find a date correct 300hp 327.
