I bought an 88 gt a few weeks ago and found it had a blown headgasket. I decided to pull the motor and buy another one. Vound one on craigslist advertised as a 90 mustang 302 with gt40 heads and had been cammed. Turns out, it is actually an F-150 5.0 engine. I already have it in the car but I have no idea how to wire this engine, vacuums etc. I have been told before that I can use the original 88 gt engine harness, but it doesnt fit. I also have no clue how to run the mass air adaptor through the firewall.
All in all I think ( though I am probably mistaken) I have 2 options.
Option A: Hope someone has a wiring diagram or has a way to explain how this wiring extravaganza would work.
Option B: I dont even know if this is possible, however I was thinking about saying goodbye to all of the wiring and putting on a carb.
Possible Option C: Take off the heads, the supposed cam and put them on the old block and spend even more money on gaskets etc.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. After 2 weeks of working on this thing and 4000 dollars of saved up money I dont want to trash this thing and call it quits.
