Engine swap help
Hello,
My father and I are purchasing a 1992-95 F150 2wd and putting a 460 or 351 cleavor in the truck. We will be running a carb on the truck. What we need help with is knowing what to do with the computer and the wiring. Thanks

What is the end goal for this project? Street beater, mudder, etc?
While a Clevor is an interesting project it only adds cost to the user. A well built 351w will run with that beast for a lot less money.
Speed costs money, how deep are your pockets?

Carb in a truck that came fuel injected? Boooo.
Anyways a Clevor is a waste of money. The aftermarket has heads that will far outflow any Cleveland head nowadays. And you don't have to get a special Clevor intake, headers, and I believe it requires machine work to cap off some water jackets on the Cleveland heads so they won't be pissing coolant while it's running. Better off building a windsor with some nice AFR's or Trickflows.

The project is going to be a muscle truck, esentually. The cleavor was an idea, but the 460 is the first choice.
And we weren't sure if we even needed the computer in it. I have not found any info online. It will be a gradual build.
