what carb and lower intake manifold would be good for a 1988 efi 5.0 im selling the motor to my buddy and he wants to carb it and we need to know how to do so cause it is an efi car and is it possible ive only been versed in fuel injection so i need some help
Is the motor going into another Stang? Will it see higher rpm ranges or be street driven? Like you mentioned before you are going to need an intake manifold and carb. Also a mechanical fuel pump and possibly a regulator and maybe a distributor with a vacuum advance, but I'm not 100% certain on that one. There are tons of manifold/carb combos out there. If it's going to be street driven and it's a basic bolt on motor a nice dual plane Edelbrock Victor manifold and a 650 cfm carb should do the trick. Really we need more info on how built this motor is going to be to make the best suggestions. Also, if this engine is going into another Stang that was fuel injected, the fuel system itself from the tank forward will need some work. Also try doing a search. I'm sure there's tons of info on here about converting to carb.
it will be street driven. and the car that the 88 efi 302 will go into is a 1985 lx notch... hence why he wants to carb the motor. also did late 80's and early 90's f-150's have a t-5????
