The parts department of a Ford dealer that sells / services medium trucks currently (F650-F750) may still have the microfiche cards around from when Ford did heavy trucks up to around 2000. A good old school heavy truck parts guy might be able to come up with the info you're after in those old fiche cards, but it is a PITA for them. When I was at Parkway we had a few guys who had been around from the heavy truck days, and they would cringe at requests like these ... but they have since retired anyway.

I'd question the accuracy of this page ... for fun I just tried the VIN from my 87 Mustang LX 5.0 (yes I'm a weirdo, I remember the full 17 digit VIN for a car I haven't owned in over 20 years), and it comes up as being a 2.3L four. Bought the car new off the lot, it was definitely a V8! I know for a fact that around that time, "E" was the 8th VIN digit for a 5.0L car and "A" was the 4 cylinder. It should be recognizing that check digit.
Tried my old Super Coupe VIN as well, it comes up with valid info though.
