I'm not sure either, I just changed my post. Yours does look like it says GTX on it but it's hard to read.
Bob, you made me relearn something today

Per interwebs search
The GTX was based on the Belvedere, and was differentiated by a blacked out grille and special rear fascia, fiberglass simulated hood scoops with optional racing stripes, a chrome "pop-open" fuel filler cap, and a tachometer mounted on the center console. The GTX was positioned as a "gentleman's muscle car".

Yours looks like a GTX then except for the grille, must have all been added, I'm pretty sure they were all 440's or 426's too. I saw a '66 out here once with a slant six in it :laugh:, the owner had taken the original motor out, gas is expensive here.

I imagine finding parts for the slant 6 are a bit cheaper as well. Probably what really happened to the original engine...
