Default Identify enginetype

How do I identify what kind of engine I got? Is there any numbers or something on the heads/block?
They say this is an 4,7 litre, but how do I know:-)

Sorry for all the questions, but you guys rule on answering:-)

just in front of the oil filler base on top of the front of the engine is a code (M28-21 or something like this) It can be kinda hard to see and you may have to move some wires and/or hoses out of the way, but it should be there.
After you get the number, go to www.928GT.com and look up the spec sheets on engines and it will tell you what you need to know.

ATR means block is factory replacement part. It should have some info of engine type though.
