Long time since i've been in here, hope all is well with you gentlemen...

So, I live in CA... and CA doensn't smile upon XCam's, and deleted smog equipment.

So, instead of tearing into my 327, i'm assembling a "spare parts" motor that will live on a stand in my shed until its needed. (every two years or so)

The "spare motor" so far is:
*Used shortblock from 87' GT (good crosshatching visible on all 8)
*30k mile E7's with new valve seals
*Fox style manifold with stock TB and EGR stuff
*SN95 fuel rails with 19lb'ers

My two questions so far:

1. I have a remote mount TFI distributor from a 93 F150 (5.0). Would it work on my 94 GT? (search came up empty)

2. The 87' 5-0 short block I have still has the stock cam. Will the speed density cam play nice with my mass air 94' computer? At least nice enough to pass emissions?


Your time is appreciated...

Danny
