Thanks to all that replied about my "strange" engine number.  I really
do appreciate it.

I'm trying to find out from the prior owner the history of this
engine.  I'm really curious about it.  However, I have a few questions
that the listers may be able to answer.  This engine was made just for
the UK market, right?  Does that mean anything to me?  Is it designed
for leaded gas?  Is it higher compression?  Do I need to burn only
high octane gas?  Hotter plugs? I have finally got this engine running
and it appears to be strong!  (it's amazing what gas and oil will
mutate to when it sits for 8 years)  I have never even heard of a
Toledo, I am just curious, was it a sedan, a sports car, or what.  If
anybody knows a link to a picture of one, I would be interested in
looking at one.

Thanks,
