Hello Guys. I have a 93 2.3 engine and trans and want to know what I would have to do to install this setup into an earlier model mustang (car which runs an engine with 4 plugs). Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
John T.

Im pretty sure you're going to need all the wiring, and a computer swap. That DIS (Distributor less ignition system) is a great idea, but the 2 plug head was not. I recommend a Turbo setup (from a junked/wrecked Turbo Coupe/Merkur XR4Ti), or just finding a v-8 and computer and wiring. Make the swap worth the time and effort.
