ok i have a 2.3l out of a 75 pinto that has been built for drag racing it has been ported to the hilt has a cam that is so radical it barely idles it has been bored over .030 with forged pistons. the guy i got it from ran nitrois that is why the cam is insane now i want to put it in a 91 coupe and make it efi i know i need to get a 87-89 wiring harness so i can run a distributer. now i have a set of brown top injectors out of a tcoupe can i use them with a ported lower and gutted upper with a 65mm tb off a 94-95 5.0 if so what computer can i use for this setup and where can i find the wiring harness and computer

you might have to go aftermarket, like a F.A.S.T. system or something. im still a little fuzzy on the tuning abilities of these 2.3L computers. You could probobly run a stock computer if you ran a milder cam, but im not sure.

Is in n/a or turbo? or is it still n/a and juiced? Whatever power adder you plan on running will make a big difference in what electronics you want to run.

Why do you need to run a distributor?

Good luck finding a stock computer that will run that engine worth a crap...why not leave it carbed?

Jesus, 13:1 compression? Have fun running that on the street. You're better off leaving it carbed, but my guess is that you'll probably hate driving it on the street anyway.

You'd have to buy an aftermarket standalone system to run a setup like that, those usually cost $500 and up.
