VIN code help appreciated

I just bought a 89 f150 (my second) It is shown online from the buyer (ebay) that it is a injected 5.0. Which it doesnt looked rigged in at all. I checked the vin on some wierd site and it said it should have a 4.9 in it. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could decode this for me: 1FTEX15N8KKA83602 I know its a ford truck made in the usa and thats as far as i got, i ran into confusion with the motor at the KK! So if anyone could let me know that would be great. Also if anyone could send me the codes so i could have them for future reference My e mail is dcmcjake@yahoo.com or just let me know where to get them.

Thanks
Jake

Also, on top of the upper intake manifold, there should be "Ford 5.0l" stamped into it.
