Hello. I found a 1987 camaro convertible production number 269 and they claim its a 223hp 350TPI. Did they ever make any convertible whit the 350?

There were zero factory produced 350 third generation F-body convertibles. That does not mean someone did not replace the original engine with a 350 though. This is very commonplace.

Also, the official production number for a 1987 Camaro Sport Coupe Convertible is 263. The hp for the 1987 350 TPI in a Camaro was 225.
