It was almost 100% gone or trashed.  No 140 MPH speedometer.  There is also a 20th anny with a few good interior parts.

It may just have an H.O plate on the intake. That's my guess. Never know til you check the firing order.

BTW, I had a 1988 T-Bird Sport way back when. I found out that it was totalled shortly after trading it in. It still has the ignition switch recall to date.

Don't the HO versions also use the same 19 lb injectors like the non-HO ??

To the O.P.:
If the upper intake is loose, take a look under it.
 A real H.O. upper will have the letters H O cast on the bottom side.

Not sure if there's an "HO" casting under the intake, but I DO know there's a little "HO" cast under the plaque on true HO intakes..

Yeah, you're right. I had a brainfart there.
It's under the upper where the casting number is.
