ive read around a bit on the boards but its always easier to just ask a direct question. im wondering how hard it is to swap an efi 5.0 into a z? or is it just easier to go with a carb setup? id prefer efi if it isnt too much more work. also which parts will i need to do the swap (alsils cm, etc)? im sorry this is so vague, im not the idiot i appear to be i swear ;). thanks for any help.

It is not all that difficult to do the EFI installation. This is a subject that has been covered extensively by myself, Alsil, SCCA(Mike Gibson), and others. Your best bet is to seach posts in the FORD swap forum on this site for posts by 74_5.0L_Z, Alsil, and scca, then if you have specific questions we'll be happy to help.

 

One word of advice, engine position is critical. If it's wrong you won't be able to close the hood, or use the 5.0L cooling fan. If it is right, then you will be 50/50 weight distribution with the 5.0 :D .

 

Welcome and happy hunting,

Dan
