not that this will help you tell by looking - but if there is no engine listed on the SPID (and it has an "E" code vice an "S" code on the SPID), the base V8 was the 307. If it came with a 350, it would be listed on the SPID. Again, this doesn't guarantee the motor hasn't been swapped, just helps you confirm what it "should" have in it - or, at least, what it would have had from the factory.
