5.0 Ho Fi

I'm trying to figure out if this 86 t/a is a TPI , i cannot open the hood because it's not my car but it has stock paint and reads 5.0l HO FI on the fender.I seen another car with that and it had a 305tpi as well. does that mean there all tpis?

Look at the 8th digit on the VIN number.

F is for TPI

The L69 thirdgens are considered to have the H.O. 5 liter carbed engine..

If it has FI on it or Fuel injected, odds are its a TPI car...

as far as L69 setups, I haven't really seen much of them to know what exactly they have on them in terms of badges...

Check the 8th digit on the vin and compare it online or here to be sure what the car had in stock form... its not to say the car was modded or changed then the only thing left is to look at the engine itself.
