The 8th position is the engine type code.
The tranny and axle code is on the lower part of the data plate on the door jamb.
Get them and we'll check er out.

Could the C be a G? If so, that would make the engine a 5.8L or 351 with a 2bbl carb. My 86 is 2FTJW35L0GCBxxxxx for Canadian built Ford Truck J being the same 9001 to 10000 GVW W35 is a crew cab L is the 7.5L (460) engine 0 is the check didgit G is the year, 1986, C is Ontario Canada and Bxxxxx is the consecutive unit number. Hope this clears up the rest.
