engine block ID help needed

[my9302002]

Have a block that is supposed to be out of an 87 LX mustang.
I can make out the E7TE on the block behind the starter.

(which I know the E stand for 80's and the "7" means it's an 87 block... "T" means truck and "E" means engine category)

I also remember reading in the archives about a number behind the intake that you also need. This number is very faint:
KF 269172

Is this from a Mustang?
I don't think you can specifically go by the E7TE number. I think the KF stand for year and plant number. From what I could get from the archives I think "K" is year 89 and "F" is the Dearborn plant. Is this right? If so, where Mustangs only made in this plant?

Just look at the bottom of the pistons and see if it says TRW. Those would be the forged pistons that only came in the Mustang. It might also have E7ZA-6110-CA stamped into the top of the pistons where the valve reliefs are.

Let me add that the only difference between the Mustang block and any other block is they tapped the lifter retainer holes in the lifter valley for the roller lifter retainer. Otherwise there is no difference.

I answered this on another forum, and yes, it is from a 1987 Mustang.
