Has anyone seen a table that decodes the letter code for the Hercules engines?

I found this on the web:

As of 10-21-08 Jobbers Warehouse has this brand new Hercules JXLD for sale. They specialize in Hercules parts and are in Pa. This engine was built in 1968 , the price for it is $7950.00 My understanding is that both the Hercules JXD as well as the Hercules JXLD share the same basic block configuration. The JXLD , however has 339 cubic inches compared to the JXD's 320 cubes. Both engines have a four inch bore but the JXLD has a 4 1/2 inch stroke compared to the JXD's 4 1/4 inch stroke.
