95 351 into 89 4.9. EFI or carb??

hey guys i got a 89 blown 4.9 5 spd short box and im about to trade my 77 f250/4spd/400 combo for a 95 f150 with a 351. i want to take the motor out of the 95 and put it in the 89. question is which would be easier keeping fuel injection or going carb'd?

Yes, keep the EFI for sure. Way easier. You will have to transplant the computer and wiring harness. Also, the 5 speed may or may not hold up well to the 351, depending on how easy you take it.
