It used to be the 8th digit. Im not sure if it still is. It used to be "C" in the 8th was a 5.9 diesel if I remember correctly on the 1998-2002.

When I see them on the lot....I look at the tailpipe, it has a crease by the bend. Where the 5.9 had no crease at the bend.

Have a good one.

edit: I just looked at a couple 2008's online and they had a "A" in the 8th digit. I have no clue I guess. Good luck.

It is the 8th digit of the VIN#. C=5.9L, A=6.7L.
