I bought my Bronco almost ten years ago.
Long story short, I bought the Bronco from a guy who bought it as a toy and didn't know much about it, nor did he do anything to it. Basically drove it for 6 months and sold it. I imagine he got it for a song and then made some cash selling it to me. I don't really care, this is my dream car.
I assumed the engine was a 170 due to the VIN. I"m a novice, but willing to learn! After dealing with some carb issues and researching carbs I came across a thread that said the 170 had 3 freeze plugs and the 200 had 5. Well, my engine most definitely has 5. It is also stamped with the following.

Is this enough info to positively identify the orphan under my hood?
