If the first truck is a 85, then it would have been carbed from the factory. Only 302's were fuel injected in 85.

On a 302 you have to tear the front of the engine apart and change the fuel pump cam eccentric piece, the timing cover, and water pump to go to a mechanical fuel pump and a regular v-belt pulley system. All to get rid of the fuel injection setup. I don't know how the 6 cylinder fuel pump is driven, but you could go to a electric fuel pump. But you still may have to look at the pulley set-up and the waterpump.

If you go with the fuel injection, then you need to get the fuel tank and all the lines, and a whole bunch of wiring. A lot of work.
