How can i tell if this motor has pi heads in fact??? please please helpa!?

The heads will be stamped with a PI on the side. Also the intake ports are alot bigger. Romeo and windsor really dont matter. The biggest difference is on has 6 bolt crank and the other has a 8 bolt crank.

The 96 mustang didn't come stock with pi heads but it is a common swap.

I got my heads for 200 with cams fully assembled.

should I buy it then? and is it a romeo or windsor and the head doesnt matter it will fit on either correct? will they work on my truck? and should I buy it, it is 2 hours away and it has a rod knock he wants $200 bucks I was gonna see if he would take 100 for it what do yall think it should still be a useable block right?

Yeah it's got Romeo pi heads. For 200 as long as no plugs have been launched it sounds like a good deal.
