[HMPIII]

looking at a car 03 mustang person states previous owner swapped a different engine he has no idea what it is

That is a 4v 4.6 with a Mach 1 shaker hood. It’s possible that it got a full Mach 1 engine swap.

so this is a Mach1 engine?

Possibly. We can’t know for absolute certain. But look at the block and see if it is aluminum. If so, I’d say it’s likely to be a Mach 1 engine.

the block will tell you what it is
cast iron blocks can be user on cobra and mach1 engines
as stated above aluminum will be the mach1 engine
so look at it closer

Do you have a pic or 2 of the actual car? Maybe it's a Mach?

Wouldn't the Mach1 have a calibration in the ECU different than a stock GT? If they did a swap, it would need that to be compatible, but not necessary as the GT would work, just not give all the extra's, unless it has a canned tune. Yes/No???

To optimize the tune, yes. But it’ll run on a gt calibration.
