Is this a 170 or 200 c.i.?

The casting code on the side of the block will tell for sure. Important to know, since the 200 was much stronger. The valve cover and air cleaner should be red, but the rest of the engine should be black. And your air cleaner inlet tube is on the wrong side, easily corrected.

Will look for the casting code today and look them up.
Should be pretty knowledgeable by late summer on these as I plan on restoring and selling the I6's. (buying a 65 shell today)
I'm a member of fordsix.com also but haven't used it much yet.

Thanks for posting the correct pic of how things should look and be positioned.
Turned the air cleaner for the "ram air" effect for now
