I currently have a 1966 mustang with a 4spd, 289, Edelbrock 600 cfm carb, Edelbrock performer rpm intake, and hooker long tube headers, full 2.5" exhaust. Aside from this, the motor is stock and in decent condition. It does run OK but is by no means fast.
Over the weekend, I received an Upper/Lower 5.0 intake manifold complete with all injectors, fuel rails, wiring harness, computer, etc from a 1996 Explorer for FREE.
These parts were intended for an early Bronco with a 302, but the Bronco was sold and my good friend gave me the parts.
I know this topic has been beat to death on the internet and on this site. What I'm looking for is any additional tips / tricks that anyone may have as well as their favorite (informative) links to these types of swaps. This is case where there is actually too much information to weed through.
I already know that I am going to need the following items:
Wiring harness cleaned up for early car
Late model Ford distributor and coil
Fuel pump with return lines plumbed
O2 Sensors bungs welded in headers and O2 Sensors
Will the current cam and firing order work? Water pump and radiator?
Any help you guys can offer will be appreciated.
