is it an HO motor or just EFI?

it should be around 215 if non HO
should be around 225 or 245 if it is an HO, can't remember?
I think thats what I was told by a mustang guy one time......

I do know their was a few years they had a "hot" setup in the intake and electronics, but I am not sure if it carried over into the trucks or not. I think it was in the 87 mustang.....
if you get a FI motor I would go for the mass air motor or one that has be upgraded to mass air. oh, and that motor has a 50oz. balance so you know what flywheel to get.

as far as the RPM I would think low like around 1700-2400, but I have not looked at any numbers so double check me on that.
