Looks like mine was one...learn something new here every day.

when the 440HP (E86) was added to your car's OPTION list, the group 27 battery (F25) was included

Mine's a true Canadian car, F25 battery, N25 block heater, but strangely enough, no rear defog... Must have been cheaper to get it dealer-installed, which could make sense as it was ordered as a demo...
@6bblgt , any info on percentages for JH23 also?

of the 38,091 V8 Challenger hardtops (JH23) built for US spec. (Y05) in '70 - ONLY 3.3% had the group 27 battery (F25) ~1,257 cars

I'm sure the "big battery's" installation rate for cars spec'd for north of the border (CANADA - Y07) was significantly higher

Mine was a F23-group 24 according to the build sheet-but it was also shipped to Calif.

@6bblgt you are indeed the man with the numbers. Thank you for yet another learning experience. I keep finding more and more facts on the rarity of my car because of your documentation.
