Put the engine number up - someone will decode it. Driver's side of the engine numbers - codes are cast on engine side
You probably have a 225. forged crank & rods. It may have solid lifters. If it has a 2 barrel carb it has the super-six package. With the Single barrel carter it produces 140 hp max. 90 hp was common depending on smog & detuning
The /6 is a workhorse. If you are looking for a race engine plan on converting to a v8.
The /6 will drive a d/w100 up to about 70-75 mph (tops depending on tune, load,and addons - 3.8 - 4.10 axle w/either the 15 or 16 inch wheels/tires)
