You can get close, although there was no call-out for engine and body line, You can figure out approximately how many of each car was made by using some limited information.

How many 87 Trans Am's had certain engines
Accorging to an adverstisement only 1500 Formulas were to come with a 350 in 87. Therefore you can subtract 1500 From 11380, and you get 9880 from the TA & GTA.

Its probably the best anyone can do, unless I missed something...
