Good question Mark... 13680 indicates 8 cylinder Custom El Camino. If you look at the RPO list for 66 Chevelles, you'll see RPO L35, which was the 396/325HP engine option for the El Camino (the 396/325 came standard in the 138 Super Sports). You'll also notice that the 396 El Caminos don't say Super Sport anywhere on them, don't have the blacked out grille in front, no SS hood, etc. Same story for the 67 396 El Caminos. The first "Super Sport" El Caminos were 1968, and they were all SS396s.
