mirror 105 block

A friend gave me a 76 F350 with a 360 4 spd. It needs much work but runs ok, not great. It has the mirror 105 on the front. Is this one of the blocks that has extra meat in the cylinder walls for overboring .080? I can't remember if this later block is worth checking by removing the freeze plug and doing the rough test with the allen wrenches.

It is worth looking at as it may have the thicker walls and might not have core shift too bad. You have about a 40% chance.
