Never seen that side plate, looks like a exhaust. Was this exhaust developed to challenge the exhaust pipes. A little before my time.Quote:

this was what was called COWBELL engine. it was a variation of the TWISTER and TWISTER 1. instead of exhaust going back into midsection and out thru gearcase, it dumped outside above garcase. imformation gained was most likely used in development of tuners used on later v6 engines.Quote:
