I'll throw another unusual wrinkle in for the heck of it.

On some rare occasions both 427's and 428's made their way into RV's. The 427 was also done as a marine engine (reverse rotation) so that old FE in the worn out looking flat bottom ski boat could be a 427. They also showed up in cabin cruisers.

I guess if it were me, I'd give that old engine a good looking over before giving up.

Others are right. It is most likely an FE. Never mind bolt patterns, an FE is a heck of a lot bigger than a 302/289

Of the FE's, a 360 or 390 is most likely in '67. The 361 was used in heavy trucks, (two ton and above) not pickups and RV's.

Get a little greasy and look it over.
