RE: It's anything from a 352 to a 428.

Except for a 427 (which that block casting number is not) you can't identify FE-series engines soley from casting numbers. But from the casting numbers you provided, it appears that your engine has probably been fiddled with over its lifetime(66 block, 67 heads, 65 intake but not absolutely).

You can tell the displacement by measuring the bore and stroke. You can get the stroke part of the equation by referencing the crank flywheel flange if that is visible to you (search the forum for "flywheel flange" to get the full scoop on scallops, holes and such for ID) or by using the wire in the spark plug hole method where you cycle the engine from TDC to BDC but the bore will have to actually be measured to know for sure.
This thread, so far...
