where and what is the block code of a 289 ci ford engine?...?

and how can you tell it is a high performance from the outside appearance?.....

If the engine is still in the original vehicle, the 5th digit in the VIN should be a K. The blocks for a 289 and HiPo 289 are identical...same casting number.

You can also look under the valve cover, and look to see if the valve spring is in a "cup", rather than on a flat surface...at least the heads are HP then.

Other than that the main caps are a little beefier than standard 289's and the rods use 3/8" bolts instead of 5/16"

Once-dominant Ford Explorer will relaunch with improved fuel efficiency
In the boom years, when living large went unquestioned, the Ford Explorer ruled the roads. Bigger than necessary and a fuel hog, the Explorer flew out of showrooms by the hundreds of thousands year after year, becoming the nation's best-selling SUV over a decade.
