nuts and bolts

Well i'm trying to order an engine bolt kit, and some new head bolts for when i eventually pull the heads off.
Its a 1983 Trans Am standard 305ci, but the dealer is asking me if its a "Tuned Port Engine", which i thought might fuel injected or something special. I'm assuming mine is'nt but dont want to get it wrong.
How do i tell?
Thanks.

Tuned port did not show up on these cars until 85-86, Unless yours has been converted, It is not tuned port.
