A guy I work with inherited a 1965 or 68 Mustang I can't be sure one of those two years.Anyway he asked me where the casting number on the engine block would be and I didn't know. Is there anyway to tell exactly what horsepower engine is in it by decoding the vin or was it a particular casting on the engine block and cylinder heads? Please help.

The casting number is on the block above the starter. you cant see it from above. If you reach under the ledge just above the starter you can get a "rub" using a paper. If the engine is out, just take a look.

Once you have the number, you can look up its history.
