I have the throw the BS flag here. A quick search result yields that a 5.0 LX (meaning the lightest foxbody 5.0 you could get at the time) tested at 14.8 in MT's July 1990 issue. Unless they ran the test at a strip on the top of Mt. McKinley, I don't see how any combination of atmospheric/car/driver/track variances would account for an entire second difference.
Another quick search leads you to the the stang forums, where the fox body 5.0 owners there are saying the best they're getting/got out of their stock 5.0s are high 14s.
Unless you can site a source where a bone stock fox body 5.0 ran a 13.9x, I have a very hard time believing your claim, given the existence of evidence to the contrary.
