Default Hood Emblems

Im looking for numbers for my hood on my 1971. I want to change them from 454 to 468 but I cant find the "6" and the "8". Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Does changing the numbers give your more horsepower?

air cleaner decal is going to be a challenge too... if you want all the numbers to match.
