    by the engine number prefix.....

    QL prefix for HQ - HZ high comp and QM prefix for HQ - HZ low comp... if you have a different prefix, list it and i will tell you what its out of..

    Could also be 11QM, XQM, HM, JM, GM, VM, NM or N5M for low comp 202. Many more high comp prefixes.

    before you start looking up numbers, does the head have large or small spark plugs?

    also, to expect ot he motor to have the original pistons 35 years later is a big ask.
