First off, IROCs were only made from 85-90.

Second, easiest way to tell what engine was installed is to check the 8th digit of the VIN. See what it is, then we can tell you what kind of engine is in there. The number/letter it could be are: H, E, F, 8

Checking the engine digit is a good place to start but I would also look at the engine itself in case the previous owner swapped motors. If it has a large round air cleaner assembly on top than it is a carb motor or TBI. If the motor is TPI will look like a big metal spider is attached to the top of it. Ha. You can get block casting numbers (behind driver side valve cover) to determine its origonal displacement.

The 3 and f are tbi and tpi, h i'm guessing probably carb'd and 8 no idea (splitfire maybe). J/w because, i'm only familiar with the e and f.
H is LG4 (carbed 305) and 8 is L98 (350 TPI)
