The silver air cleaner assemblies with the lids held down by clips and the twisted snorkel are sourced from XD and XE Australian Falcons (1979 - 1984). The engines were painted black, the valve covers & air cleaner assemblies were silver. The air cleaners had a "5.8" decal on them. The engines were equipped with Bosch electronic distributors which have a smaller distributor shaft, the Autolite/Motorcraft distributors won't fit.
