Cool EFI swap

Well, I'd start by finding a wrecked F250/350, and get everything you need INCLUDING the front springs!! a 460 is a little heavy for a F150, though they used to do it in the mid-late 70s, your guages should all work fine, provided you use the correct type senders on the 460.
Look for a '92-97 F250-350
