FG 1.016, should I just set this up with a blow off from the get go,or will there be enough head space?
No idea what your OG is, so the FG by it's self is a bit irrelevant. Doesn't matter, I always recommend you use a blow off for the first 3 days of fermentation.
1.066 is a pretty big beer. I strongly recommend using a blow off for this one.
You can just leave it on there for the entire length of time your beer is in primary if you like. I only switch back to an airlock because I like the bubbling noise. If you do switch back to an airlock, let it sit with the blowoff for about three days of active fermentation. Start that timer when the blowoff container starts bubbling.
