Sparky, There were no 360s in 66, maybe there is a smudge on that page.

My book shows no Y code for 66, but my sisters 66 also shows Y and it has a 352.

Trans code differs from above- 3sp manual.

Axle code- 4.10-1

I dont know why the code books neglected Y-352 for the 66s, but shows it for 67.

Yeah I think the code reader I used must have a "smudge" in it like John says
Maybe it doesn't recognize the "older" trucks just the "newer" 73-79's
I am just up the highway in Courtenay, small world.

The 352 was the only V8 offered in the year model truck that I am aware of.

The thing is, it don't matter what is on the sticker if you like the truck and have the money, buy it. All of that other stuff could have been changed out on the last 34 years.
