Others may know more than I do but I have it that 'early' 1927 engines started with # 2,874,999 in December 1926; there was then a change on June 7th 1927 to a new Cylinder Head [32 b.h.p. type] at Engine # 3,409,976 except for Engine # 3,410,101 to # 3,415,520, the motors having a new type of Delco-Remy semi-automatic Distributor [mechanical flyweight as against a spring advance] which was mounted as before but required a different method of timing, as well as a change to a larger Carter carburettor, a Carter C-RJX-0, as compared the previous model 1-inch C-RX-0. The exception motors we now know were for export.

1928 Selling Season or Late model engines started at around # 3,557,001 and finished at # 3,863,595.

I have it seems data for 1927 cars and commercials but as you have only asked about cars:
