Question VIN explanation

What's up
I'm looking for VIN explaination and engine specs, like bore and stroke, for 1994 Ford F series.
Does anyone know websites or books what contains such information?
Please advise

In the tech articles section of this site, under the section for decoders, there is some info about the VIN plate codes (axle, trans, paint) and how to decipher the VIN number. A while back, somone here compiled a list of engine HP and TQ ratings for alot of years and engines. '94 should be in there. I don't know whatever happened to the list though. It was supposed to have been saved somewhere on this site...
