I purchased an 85 Mustang from a friend who was in need of cash. He is the
2nd owner since the engine was done and unfortunately has no documentation. I've driven the car - it hauls big time and pulls past 6 grand without a problem. The car was built from a 4 banger and the overall craftsmanship is excellent - that's what made me buy it despite the lack of information on the engine. The stuff he "knows", it's bored 30 over and puts out "about 385 horse". I intend to verify that on the dyno.Anyways my question, should I expect to see brands/part no's stamped on internals if I drop the pan and pull the valve covers? How far can I go and does anyone have any suggestions for "reverse engineering" my 302 (er, well I think it's a 306)?
TIA, you guys have been great as I'm new to this group and Mustangs (or RWD cars for that matter).
