Dave, thank you, that is definitely my distributor--so it's an xe motor, the auto is history, mating up a T-5. Distributor is history too as it appears to have been running into itself for a while.
I had a chance to look at the block casting numbers today, someone was sure keen on z's and u's. The numbers look like 83 DA 6015 AA.
The head has some numbers on it, but nothing that looks like a model or part number: 53 ZB, O 65, and HF-5; there's even a 321 stamped at one end. The intake ports look like they have a notch for an injector nozzle, but it definitely had a carb on it. An injection head as a replacement perhaps?
I am smiling, thank you
George
