Blue Ralph,

Yes, Mr. Norm/Grand Spaulding did partner up with Hurst Performance
for the 40 or so 'GSS' 68' Darts with the 440.

Rough numbers are between 31 and 48 produced.
But built some time in April 1968.

In December 1967/Jaunary1968, Chrysler (Dodge) sent out 5 or 6
68' Dart GTS cars, equipped with 440's, to selected factory-based
teams (ie; Dick Landy, Ron Mancini, Charlie Allen Saddleback Dodge
and a couple of other teams).

These 5 or 6, were race-ready, and could run 12.10's for SS/EA in
early-1968.
All the teams had to do, was paint them, and install their desired
mag-wheels and slicks.
