With no pictures:
Look in ebay motors. Search ford 2.3 carb.
Find a picture of one that looks like yours. Seller will tell what it is.

If your engine is a 49 state 1980 2.3 turbo, the carb is a model 5200 2 barrel.
Look for a metal tag on it with letters and numbers. This is the carb id.
This will confirm it is the correct carb for that engine.

A specific carb was installed according to year and engine calibration number.

Turbo 2.3 carbs have unique parts, different from the n/a 2.3 versions.
Those parts have to stay on it.
