It's from an '86 V6 Special. I'm rebuilding mine now. Here is a copy of an ad for the motor when it first came out:



It was only a 2.6L but it made 220HP thru compression and timing and uses high test gas only. My cowl is all faded and it would be neat to get an original in good shape so I'll keep my eyes out for an original 150 cowl. But if that doesn't work out I wonder if you could get me some all around photo shots of yours so that I have something to go by if I just repaint mine. Here is a picture that shows the condition of mine:



Thanks in advance.
