Were xr v8 engine numbers different to none xr?

Just trying to work out if my lane has had a xr motor or something done to it.

Doesn't have any of the external clues, like the ticky tb or anything like that, but it just seems to go really well for what should be quite a 'sedate' big old car.

Engine number should match VIN number. If they don't, motor has been swapped out at some stage.
