i have a couple of questions... first i have an 84 mustang gt... engine started smokin so i replaced with another. thing is i bout it off a guy for 300 hundred but he just told me he got it off a mustang but didnt tell me the year... well i know there is a roller motor and a non roller i need help figuring out the difference to find out if its a roller or not... ive dropped the engine in.. it turns on but too much fuel is droppin in the engine that it bogs out. i placed the four barrel carb off the 84 gt on it and i am figuring that to b the problem but i would like to b for sure.. also do 84 mustnags have a fuel pump inside the gas tank? i know the block i took out had a fuel pump up front that connected to the timing chain cover... which i put on the motor i dropped into the car.... need advice thanks

There are numbers on the heads under the valve cover. I'm shure someone will look up the numbers for you. I have the book at home but I'm at work now.

alright here goes another question...

well ok then its more than likely that the motor is a roller motor... now the question is that the 84 mustang has a fuel pump in the front where the timing chain is located it uses the eccentric on the camshaft to pump fuel. now im using the same setup on this roller motor... is there any difference should it make a difference? would that cause any issues???

no...should be fine with that.

if you're running into issues, it's probably carb related
