Re: 305???
You'll need to find the reference or id numbers on the engine. There are a couple of locations to find them from, block, heads, you get the idea. Here's a ref tool to use; http://www.nastyz28.com/sbcmenu.html

The L69 HO wasn't available in 1987, so it's a moot point if just the engine was replaced since you'd be missing a lot of the supporting things that made the L69 an HO.

Wow, a deer wiped out the engine!
Must have been a huge deer, indeed.
Wait, you said "huge dear" - was it his wife??????

Oh dear, that's a hell of a problem that he hit that deer. Glad the problem with the dear is resolved though.

Re: 305???
If they hit a deer hard enough to need a motor, I would bet the car could have used a pretty good pull on the frame machine. IMHO
