I would think with minor changes you could, contact holley for the details.

If it boils down to a distributor issue, there are hybrid HEI dizzies for the ford 300

You might check out msefi.com as well. They have a pretty economical set-up, might be a little easier to use.

You are better off staying with the multi-point injection that the 4.9 aleady has if your truck is new enough to have it. The holley tbi will not work on the 300. It's not configured for this engine.

Itll work...inliners have been doing it for years...

stock 4.9 efi would be the easiest approach, although its still batch fire, and whether its a dramatic improvement over a short runner with TBI, I would imagine is debatable.

Sorry, edelbrock's website doesn't say much, the list only showed v-8s and 4.3 v-6. Didn't know you could adapt it.
