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.
Double vote for its a LG4

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
