open the hood? Read the emissions sticker? It would be a 5.0 modular not a 302. yes same displacement but not the same engine and never referred by its size in cubic inches. We live in a metric world.

Back in the days of the in-line 6 cylinder engines the 4.9 was considered the same as the 300 cid.

It is the eighth digit of the vin number. "T" is a Ecoboost for sure. I don't know about the other engines.
