I believe your intake should bolt onto your block, but I'm not sure. Don't worry about the computer as long as that '72 engine is relatively stock power wise. Re-use all of your wiring.

 

What if its not quite stock. It has a scat 349 stroker and some larger unknown cam that requires at least a 2500 stall converter if i get an auto donor truck.

 

There is no factory Ford EFI computer that will run that engine well. I suspect even a conversion to mass-air using a Mustang computer would not be ideal for that engine. It would most likely need custom tuning.

 

Gotcha. Ive already priced out a 89 to 93 mustang complete set up for 1100 from prestige mustang, just thought maybe i could get it to work . I really appreciate the advice.

 

Yeah that's not gonna work, but if you take out the cam and swap in something EFI friendly it'll run fine with a 5.8 PCM substituted.

 

I was talking to a buddy and he said i could use the engine and cam i have but in order for it to work id have to swap out the distributor drive gears. Im trying to find more in this but he is very knowledgeable and hasnt lead me astray so far. I dont know if anyone could or does have any more information on this. Greatly appreciate all the input.

 

That would make it mechanically compatible but it still won't make it compatible with the EFI system in your truck.

 

I have a 1992 f150 that had the 300 in wth 5 speed but I am going back with 1992 or 1993 5.0 ho out of ga police car and would like to know what all I will need to sit it in and have her running I have all wireing and computer just Heard that I will need to do fab to how the motor mount and other stuff and would just like to know if anybody has done it and can point me in the right part I need to order to complete and what all will need to be done this will be my first transformation

 

I believe the 4.9 and 5.0 use the same engine cradle, so it should be pretty straight forward.
