Welcome to the forum. 67 Should be a 318. Now the better question is which 318 as 67 was the crossover year. The A 318 is better Known as the Poly after it's Poly-spherical combustion chambers. The other 318 is the LA 318 which continued on into the 90's and became the Magnum. The poly has a saw tooth side on its valve covers. I am not sure if the RB 413 was an option yet in 67. Carburated engine with points ignition are simple once you understand the basics which as a Mechanic you have. 67 Chassis manual will have a schematic for the wiring. It should be very basic. Have fun digging in. Napa still has parts books.
