I believe it will be 2" narrower than the '67 housing. It would be good depending on what backspacing you want on your wheels. Not sure but I think the mounts are located the same.

Yep, Pete's right. I have a 67 rear axle in my 66...pushed my tires out 1 inch on each side. Which is fine, because I'm using wheels that normally require 1" adapters on each side.
