Certainly a SBF, without having a good look at the engine, its impossible to tell, again without a good look its impossible to guesstimate HP
it looks like a later 302/5L or could be a 351 truck engine with the fuel injection removed

Understandable, just wondered if it could be identified as a windsor/cleveland/whatever for the photos, (i know little or nothing about yank V8's if you hadnt already guessed) If i find out the engine numbers i assume that might help.. if there are any specific ones to look for...
Thanks again.

Can't specifically identify your engine but the informsation here will help with the engines spec.

If your still stuck try posting on the British V8 forum (USA) they will almost certainly be able to identify it for you.
