Smile 85 ford truck

I have a 85 F-150 lwb 302 fuel injected truck 3.73 out back tci shift kit on AOD trans nitro shocks new engine everything is new but my blower motor caught on fire and burnt the inside wiring and the engine control harness I want to convert it to a duel 4bbl intake and do away with the fuel injection . I really need your input its a nice truck I put into it about 10,000 dollars including the custom white with blue pearlescent paint job I just cant sell it so I must fix it .anything you can think off would be surely appreciated.

Dual 4 bbls on a 302 seems to be a waste - you would have more trouble tuning it than it's worth - why don't you just get another harness?

That intake will fit on a 351W, right? How much are you going to want for your old fuel injection components?

I dont think it will fit I looked at a 351 fi and it looked similar but I dont think it will fit. Also all the harnesses I can find are for the 86-92 302 with mafs and my wiring harness incorporates the speed sensor on the speedometer cable if you think that it would work I will look into it further because its ashame to leave that toy parked for too long.would I have to change out my computer also?
