Question 1973 f-600 Trying to find engine size Need help decode

I have a 1973 Ford F-600, My grandfather purchased it new and sold it in 1980. I found the truck sitting in a field 30 years later and had to have it. I new it was his because it still had his name on the doors. Anyway I am trying to figure out what engine is in it. The vin number is F60DVR02113, everything I have read says the 4th digit is the engine size but I cannot find a "d" anywhere. The Id tag reads:
WR 182
Color V
Model F602
Body 48
Tran A
Axle F23
GVW Lbs 19200
Axle F23

any help would be great, I am also looking for running boards for this truck if anybody has any, Thanks Alot.

Engine Code "D" is a 330 CI FT engine.

Op: for running boards, look up heavytruckparts.net and call some of the yards that have older trucks. I have gotten a pair of mine thru that site. They are the same from 67-79 on all f500-f7000

All this jazz was decoded in your other thread in the Large Truck forum.

Note: There are TWO different 330 2V FT engines.

Your truck has the 330 2V Heavy Duty. The 330 2V Medium Duty is not the same.

I decoded this VIN on 5/10/2016 in another thread.

And even though I corrected it, you're still typing a Y for the assembly plant. It's a V
