mass air conversion?

getting ready to convert my truck(5.0,5spd) from speed density to mass air and was just wondering if anyone has used the Professional mass air systems overlay harness along with mustang parts and how it worked or if I should just go with the ford racing kit any input is appreciated

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/5...-write-up.html Speed Density to Mass Air Conversion. F150, Bronco, Mustang. Here's a couple a links ta chew on. I'm doing my 87' 5L in the next couple of weeks. From what I've heard, it saves a little time & a few aspirins, with the same results for alot of money. If I run across anything else I'll send it your way.

Here's the other one. It wouldn't let me put 2 links in 1 post. If you run across my thread re:Mafotized, you'll notice it's a good idea to stick to truck topic. No more than two questions, metaphors,or attempts at humor (Especially in a row). Good Luck on your project! Speed Density to Mass Air Conversion. F150, Bronco, Mustang.

I did the swap from the Mustang as well. I got a junkyard computer, and a mass air meter. I didn't bother with an aftermarket harness, there are only a couple/three additional wires to run from the meter to the main plug on the computer. I bought a roll of wire at Pep Boys and ran it myself. The installation took about 30 minutes.
