It’s an LA, just never heard of one that would have been mfg as early as 66. Maybe that second 6 is an 8. I’ll see if I can get pics of the heads tomorrow.
but, Did '67 Cars get 318's?
My Dad bought a new 67 Plymouth and it came with an LA engine not a poly. So Aug. 66 would be a good time to start building LA's and leave the Poly's up in Canada.
My dad bought one of these brand new

318's didn't come in A-Bodies until 1968, but came in other bodies in 1967 which started on 8-1-66...
Yep. It is a 66 318 just not out of an A body.
