I'm still hunting for a 4.0 SOHC motor and was looking at wrecked auctions but the don't have pictures of the motor. They do list vins tho, is there anything that would tell if it's what I need?

Edit I found the vin decoder page, but if the 8th digit is what engine it has what does a K mean?

In VIN 8th position
E = 4.0l SOHC
K = 4.0l SOHC Flex Fuel
X = 4.0l OHV
