My  question: Was an engine  option on the dealer level available or was it 
ordered  from the  factory ONLY?

NO!!!!!!

No to both of Tim's questions or just one?  And which one?  As  the 140 was 
a listed option I've always thought that they were ordered from the  
factory by the buyer (unless GM built the car with it and forced it on the  dealer 
as part of a group of cars).  In early 1967 (late calendar  1966) my dealer 
didn't show the 140 as an option, but the dealer said they could  get it 
(December 1966).  I'm still not sure how one did that until the  option was 
restored later in the model year.
