302 V8?

I've done some searching here and elsewhere, and I am now more confused than I was. Did Ford make a V8 5.0 302? I may be getting a 1984 bronco, and according to the dealer it has a V8. But the VIN shows it as a 5.0L 2BBL 302. And then there is a government site that shows it simply as a 4.9L V8. I thought the only 302's were straight 6's. Could someone help me out here? Thanks.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 12-Dec-02 AT 06:01 PM (EST)]302/5.0 are the same thing, a V8. The 4.9 is a straight 6 (also called a 300).

Technically the 302ci engine calculates to be 4.94895 liters
that is where the government gets a 4.9L V8 which is also called a 5.0L by Ford.
