they should cause the case is the same as original. was it originally a 1600. i cannot find my manual at the moment to check

a 66 wouldnt have been a 1600. 1300cc i think. it should still fit straight in no worries though. the best way to find out is to ring micks.

i had a 1640 twin port in my 66 and it fitted fine. the extractors were abit of a pain but that was the brand I think, not the motor itself.🙂
