No, I *think* that the upgraded 155 or 165 would have been a 155-2 or 155-II. The 158 or 168 designation would have been ordered as a 158 or 168. I agree that there were no 157's or 167's.

Yep, it was an IBM 370-165 that was field upgraded to a 370-168 by
including a DAT box. I never heard of them being a "7s", like a 167. But I do recall there was a distinction between a factory delivered 168
and a field upgraded 168.  But the labeling on top of the light display,
said "IBM 370-168".  (obviously, that was upgraded from saying "IBM
370-165".
