Are you asking about 1967? If so the answer is yes, it was the same as the standard except the lid was chrome.

The entire 68 air cleaner was different than 67. IMHO the 68 sprints did not have the chrome lids.

Good to have all the info. Might want to include it in your signature or you will need to include it in your post over and over again ;)

There is not one base for the 67 C code but the Sprint package would use the same base as a non-Sprint built for the same application and DSO. Yes to the snorkel and heat shield all three were engine color with a chrome spoke style lid/top

Not all the most pristine unrestored examples but a few

And emission requirements based on where the car was first sold. Open or closed system
