Do I have a 302 or 302HO

Do I have a 302 or 302HO
Picked up a '87 GT that doesn't have the engine it was born with.
Few pieces missing--distributor is one of them.
Think the firing order is different between a 5.0 and a 5.0HO
How can I figure out what engine I have?
Thanks

Easier: Check plug wires, starting with #1: non-HO firing order 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8, follow wires around dist. cap., counterclockwise starting at #1.

If the present engine has all of the parts it came with from the factory and the parts on the engine are Non HO parts,then you can tell if its a Non HO,but if someone has added HO parts to a Non HO engine,it would be hard to tell.Most Non HO engines were unpowered too,150hp vs 225hp.If someone takes a Non HO engine and drops a HO camshaft,ecu,injectors, heads & intake in place,it is now considered an HO.HO came with 13726548 firing order & 15426378 for the Non HO.The firing order (cam) ecu and injectors are the main components that would have to be changed for it to run similar to a HO.A Non HO cam & injectors wont work with a HO ecu and vice versa.
