You asked about L78s but do not forget you could get a 396 350HP (L34) with a th400 in 1968.

There were a total of 98 TH400's in 1968. Minus the 50 Fred Gibb ordered cars leaves 48 L34 cars in 1968.

Couldn't you get a turbo 400 in a 67 or 68 375 horse camaro or big car? How about a vette? When did the 400 actually come out?
