'93 460EFI: what do i need to go sequential?
Hello,
i have a 460EFI from a '93 truck with a E4OD on it.
I have a baumannator unit for the E4od when needed.
Currently the engine is bank-fired, and speed-density.
Now, i would like to make it sequential, and speed-density or MAF, that's not a real point.
I can't see what i need due to the many possibilitys..
The engine/tranny is currently on a stand.
What do i need to make a sequential-setup?
naturally, i can throw a bucket of money and buy it all, but i rather fabricate it myself due the nature of the build.
Can anybody shine some light in the dark?
Thank you.

You need a MAF computer of course, you could try to find a california 460 computer which would take care of the tranny as well, and you'll need the matching engine harness to get the sequential injector, MAF meter, and extra O2 sensor harnesses. You could also use a mustang computer with a tuner and the Baumannator on the tranny, but you still need a complete engine harness or you'll have to add those extra wires yourself. Both methods have benefits, simplicity with the 460 computer, or performance tunability with the mustang computer, your choice.

well,
i'll probably will never run on gasoline, so i want to keep it as simple as possible.
All i need it for, is the propane injection in order to piggyback the system...
I have no troubles making my own harness, only thing is: where an i find the schematics?
My guess is that a cali-computer will do the trick, but what are the codes of it?
When i get a mustang (5.0?) computer, would it NEED to be reprogrammed?
I guess the mustang uses 19LB/H injectors, and the 460 uses 24LB/H, so when they're activated, the amount of fuel will automatically be more for the 460, as needed. I hoped that there wouldn't be any programming needed.
Oufcourse, when i need to install and fabricate the whole ceremony, i might just as well pull 2 fuel lines and use the sistem anyway when needed...
Any info/links?
Thanks!

There's a lot of info on fordfuelinjection including the computer pinouts on this page... Ford Fuel Injection. I can't find any boxcodes for 460 truck computers, they seem to hard to find. If you were to use a mustang computer it would need to be programmed with a chip/tuner, all the tables and scalars are way off so it would not be a simple plug and play operation.

I intend to go for the mustang and a Quarterhorse.
Are there any suggestions about the computer code?
Since it's going to be a long-term project anyway, i may as well do it with with all the bells and whisles to make it as good as possible, and go for tunability instead of ease..
I know myself, if i go the "easy" way now, i'll pull it sooner or later anyway to make it the optimal way...
