As suggected pulling the engine is probably a good idea. Although, it is most likely a 390 or 428. Only FE variants were the standard equipment in 60's birds until 1968 when the 429 was introduced. The only 2 engines available in 1967 were 390s and 428s.
The 'bird could be a pretty neat car if you gutted the 600 pounds + of sound deadening and tweaked the suspension a little, just don't get creative with the original lines. I have owned a dozen or so '60's era 'birds and always liked the highway ride, they were just a little too heavy for any sporting type driving.
