What is it ?

[Mroclewis]

I received as a gift a 1989 Mustang GT and I am trying to figure out what is under the hood. I have concluded that it is indeed a 302 but here is the problem : I canot tell what year it is. If anyone can please tell me what year did ford quit putting mechanical fuel pumps on the 302.

What are the casting numbers on the block?

That is a very good question. Now here is another one. Where should I begin to look for the casting numbers. Thanks for your interest.
