Welcome to the group. For starters which 318 do you have? An LA318 or a 
poly 318? It's easy to tell. If the valve covers are scalloped on the 
bottom edges then it's a poly. If they are straight it's an LA. The La's 
are newer and I bet that's what you have although the poly's were 
available till '66 but not in your Dart, as I recall. Parts are 
different so you need  to know that first.
