If it is a stock 66, then you have the 8". Carizzna gave you a very good example of what to look for if an upgrade was added.

Very few people put 9" rearends under a mustang. I did only because I wanted the disk brakes and I had a I6 in my car.

For the most part, the rear hump in the middle is the easiest way to tell if it is a 9 incher...

If you can get a socket with an extension on all the bolts holding it in, it's an 8". On a 9", you have to use a wrench on one of the bolts.
