Defenitly a 3rd Gen 305 LG4 at the worst. I know... I had one in an old car, with that same exact air-filter.

Its deffinatly a V6. What you circled looks to be part of the AIR system.

I'll agree that it looks like a carbed 2.8, but by 85 they were MPFI - that's what was in my '85 Camaro.

No, it was just way longer...

I say its a V8, it just looks set back because the fan shroud is removed...

and another thing ....

Compare that to this MPFI pic i just found real quick on TGO. You will see that the accessories bracket are about even with the strut tower.

Why does it look like its half under the cowl? Ill go with the V8 idea, only because I dont think they make aluminum intakes for 60* carbed V6's, and if they did, who in there right minds would want to make a V6 fast?

Hmmm... Well I see what you guys are talkin about... It's a 350 Bored... Aluminum Edelbrock manifold... And yes... it's EGR... with all the AIR crap in it... I was hoping to pass emissions :lol:
