The SCJ cars had the Drag Pack option. Regular R codes were just CJs.

428 SCJ (DragPack) engines were certainly available in 69, a couple of years ago I rebuilt one for a friend who bought a 428SCJ 69 Mach 1 brand new, special order, with a C6 & 4.30 gears. In Mustangs, a 428 non CJ was a "Q" code, while a "R" code was a Shaker scoop equipped "ram air" vehicle, with either a 428 CJ or SCJ. Both engines used the same "R" code. However, when it comes to Cougars, I have seen several ram air 428CJ cars with the "Q" engine code. A local guy has a really nice 70 428CJ ram air Eliminator, he swears that he has never seen a "R" code Cougar, only "Q"`s.
