Dug out my trusty decoder book. The book(Catalog of American Car ID Numbers 1960-69) only lists 2 differnt 390's for 69. Engine code Y(2 barrel 270hp) and S(4barrel/high perf 320hp)
This is the fifth number in your VIN. This is also for all 69 fords. The mustang, according to this book, only came with the S code 390 in 1969. It does not make a distintion between auto or man trans. This also agrees with what I've heard in the past as well. I would think that chilton made a type-o. It happens.
