My reason for calling him, is I have a 66 that has the cutout and the "T" fitting in the return line, yet it had a 140 in it when I got it.  The engine codes don't match the body [date ] so...........  Has anyone found documentation to prove or disprove?   My cutout appears to be factory, yet there was no hole or buzzer on the floor.  I have been confused since I bought the car, but I am restoring it with a turbo, because I belive it was, but I can't prove it.
