This is kind of a spin off from my cam thread, is there a ford with the MAF set up that would work on an 88 with a 5.8? If so what is it and what parts would I need. I can splice wires, i am pretty good with a soldering iron, when working on my own stuff my time isnt that valuable to me so I do not mind if it is extra work. I can make the tubing, that wouldnt be that big of a deal, i just want my truck to work and work right, and if I can get it cheaper than the Ford conversion kit it will be worth the savings. Thanks

 

94 and up had maf available. 5.0L and the 351 were intechangeable iirc aside from a firing order difference. Again thats if I'm remembering correctly...

 

What tranny does your truck have?

If it's a C6 or manual get a mustang computer and MAF meter, and pull the MAF and injector wiring off the same or a truck and add it your your existing harness. You will need the wires all the way from the component connectors to the computer pins since the pins too are missing from your harness. There is very little soldering to be done besides some power and ground connections.

 

I am not sure the door says K

 

is it possible to bypass the computer and still have fuel injection? just wondering becaus I saw a distributer that was not computer compatible but it said it was for my truck. I am not cosiderng it at this point

 

No, or at least not electronic fuel injection.

 

if the tranny is not a c6, what would have to be done

 

Does it have OD? If it does that means it has a computer controlled tranny and you would have to use a truck MAF computer.

 

i have an 87 302 manual , what could i use for the maf converison?

 

See my first post.

 

Alright, thanks a lot conanaski, i should have this running by the weekend, just so I get what I need the first time, what is the year range on the mustang that I need to pull all the stuff of of?? again, thanks alot for your help

 

Any 5.0 mustang from '89 and up will do, or a 5.0 Cougar or Lincoln coupe from the same years.

 

ah yeah , read right over that, thanks!

 

doesnt matter if it is manual, or automatic???

 

I'd suggest 89-93, personally, since there were several changes to the calibration strategy in 94.
