[QUOTE="Snagmaster, post: 16702981, member: 170795"] I was given a 94 GT Vert by family friends, it had been stored on their land for 6 months but 2-1/2 years later they got tired of looking at it and did the paperwork to dispose of it as the owner could not be found They knew I own a 98 Cobra Vert so asked if I wanted it, i pulled the battery, charged it overnight, replaced one battery terminal, put 3 gallons of premium in the tank, checked all fluids, pulled the coil wire and spun it over till I got pressure on the gauge It fired right up, no check engine light, no oil smoke from the exhaust, no overheating, it runs great It has 185,000 on the odometer, it drives really nice but I haven’t beat on it as it sat for so long and I didn’t want to burn a ring if one was stuck or such It has great oil pressure like what you would expect from a new engine, my question is where is the vin number on the block?, what color was the factory painting engines that year?, it has black steel valve cover with a white 888 on the drivers side cover I’m trying to figure out if the engine is original, has been rebuilt, or has been replaced with another I just need some direction on what to look for, I’m just not up on 302’s and don’t want to spend hours trying to figure it out Any help on what to look for and where to look? Thanks for any help, much appreciated BTW the car will be given to my older sister in Colorado, she’s owned them all from a 67 GT 500 Shelby to a 66 2+2 to a Mach One SCJ to a pace car, a Boss 302, a 98 Cobra Hardtop, a 68 GTA Fastback and others It’s going to a good home [/QUOTE]
