Lets assume big block, distributer in front, right? Then there will be a machine surface to the right of the base of the distributer, is that facing straight up? Probably. Next look for some stamped numbers on it that will tell you displacement. If the machined boss is under an a.c. Compressor it might be hard to see. If the machined boss is at a bit of an angle facing more towards the top of the drivers fender that's ok too, it will also have the displacement stamped on it. If the plugs are coming straight out of the valve covers, walk away and give me the owners contact info.

That's what I thought too but one 66 NY'er I parted out had a G in the vin instead of a J for an engine code. Had no motor when I got it so I'm not sure what it had.

J would have been what for that car? 440 HP?

J was the 440 and G was the 383. I think they just had the regular 440 in 66 but I might be wrong on that.
If it still has the original engine.

Exactly! That's why I even bothered to post as much as I did. For example, '67 Imp coupe with 318...

Any chance of seeing pics, even though you've probably got your answer?

LUV to have that set up under the long hood of my Newport, lol.
It can't be too big to upload I usually reduce them to 1200 X what ever, then hover on the icon above, it is 3 to the right of the smiley face it will say insert image, and follow the steps from there. Good luck. We love our pictures here would like to see some of you barn find.
