If you have the fender tag, look under the "AB" letters.  If a 426 street 
wedge (426CI 365 horse), it will have the numbers 80 under the AB.  Other 
numbers possible for this vehicle could be:
20 - 225 slant 6
30 - 273 2 barel
40 - 318 poly
50 - 361 2 barrel
60 - 383 2 barrel
61 - 383 4 barrel
80 - 426 4 barrel
To my knowledge no 413s were put in 65 B Bodies (#'s 70 or 71)

Thje number under the "D" represents the transmission
1 or 2 - 3 speed col
3 - 4 speed
5 - torqueflite
Hope this helps.
Don
