now i have a torker II intake with a 600 cfm carb, long tubes, mellings mtf-1 cam and a .060 overbore. i had a tbird with MAF and i still have the intakes,TB, dizzy,injectors/fuelrail,maybe the MAF sensor and maybe the harness. will this give me more power than my carb and how much will i spend on getting all the sensors and computer for this efi swap. i may just swap to a lower rpm carbed manifold.

A properly tuned and maintaned EFI system will give you better all weather performace, easier starting and better gas mileage.

Check out WWW.summitracing.com for an EFI conversion if you don't have a line on the junkyard parts.

Junkyard price on the computer will be $90-$130, another TB will be $20-$50.

The 95-97 Explorer had a
manifold and 65 MM Tb that is a nice swap. I paid $250 for the manifold, TB and 19 lb injectors.

what pound injectors came with the 91 HO Tbird. they are orange capped, and are the intakes all that great ported and unported. i want that new BBK intake that looks like the 99-up v6 stangs.i can find a computer cheaper around here for sure.

You can always get more power with EFI, But it will ALWAYS be more expensive.
If you go to a stock EFI system you will gain alot of driveability, but lose quite a bit of power.
