The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

compared with sandblasters engine-id´s  it is a 2002... 
but you should call a kx-dealer to find out the exactly year of the bike ..

does it has a green or black tank?? 
big 2 stroke bikes are weapons for real men, who don´t fear death or devil. ;O)
´83 kx250, ´87 kx250 (with 360 big bore), 87 kx500, ´93 kx500 sfc

the frame VIN should be on the right side of the frame neck....
the engine I.D. should be right next to the oil filler on the right side of the engine...
if neither of them are there...I'd suspect a stolen bike/parts.

post some pics of the bike.

Frame is a 93.
Engine does not really matter as long as it has all three exhaust valves.
Parts will interchange from 89-04.
