I'm pretty sure the 88 carb'd would be a 2.0, not a 2.3l unless someone swapped it. I'd guess 85/86 at the latest.

i didnt think it was legal after 88 to manufacture an engine that wasnt EFI

1985 was the last year for the carburated 2.3. However Ford did continue to produce the 2.0 as a carburated engine until it was discontinued after the 88 model year...
