Re: 66 newport question

I have a 1966 plymouth fury 3 that i bought from the original owner a little old lady from taylorsville nc,, and it was special ordered with the new for 1966 J code 440 engine, it is a pretty rare car and i have had many go arounds with people who said the 440 was not available in the fury for 66,,The woman i bought the car from told me she special ordered it and waited half the summer for the arrival of her new fury,, after owning the car now since 2000 i have only seen a few other 1966 fury's with the j code 440..when it was offered in the plymouth fury (c body) it was rated at 365 hp and in the chrysler it was rated at 350 hp the difference being dual exhaust and a dual snorkle air cleaner on the plymouth giving it 15 more hp

u could have still got the 426 wedge in 66 in a b-body I believe. But
I know that in 66 the 440 was available in either Chrysler C-bodies ,
and the other C-bodies. Yes that could be that it was Plymouth/Dodge
C-bodies, but I am dead sure on this about b-bodies: 67 was the
first year for 440 in a b-body. Here's a stumper when did the 440
become available in A-bodies?
