    I have a 1966 Mustang with an Inline 6 that I plan to have rebuilt. How can I determine if it is a 170 or 200ci engine? The wierd thing about this engine is that the exhaust manifold doesn't seem to properly mate up to the head. Do these engines have casting numbers like chevy engines so you can determine exactly what you have?

    My e-mail address is: strtrodder49@yahoo.com

    Thanking you all ahead of time.

    the 170 has three freeze plugs, and the 200 has five in the block.
