thanks btwBtw, welcome to StangNet, and I offer my condolences for your loss...
Ok, i know its different then before i went up to the local junk yard and found a 1995 ford F150 EFI 5.0 complete everything.. someone took the tranny out and the engine is just sitting in there by the engine mounts and someone took the computer and wire harniss so it will be a snap to pull "they have a tractor with a boom on it and let people use it" its got all acceries still on the motor, but the throttle plate is missing, thats the only thing gone off the engine keeping it from being a runner " I have a 1995 ford f150 efi 5.0 right now so i know what it looks like lol" the engine is clean and has no oil what so ever on it, the valve covers are spotless and look brand new compaired to the ones on my truck altho it dont leak oil either, but after thinking hard about it, i dont want the wiring, i want no computer to mess with so straight carb and a duraspark ignition with a msd box "it is all there right now as far as dizzy" so i want to remove the EFI system and put a intake and carb on ii could use some of the parts on my truck like heads and everything since its the same truck and motor just different paint job.. this truck is red and mine is a dark blue/green the motor is $100. any difference between 95 mustang efi 5.0's and 95 f150 truck efi 5.0's? "i will take it apart and have it machined so i know whats in it and get a good cam and check the lifters, if they are good i'll keep them, but for $100 i dont think i could go wrong with a complete engine
well i was looking for a little bit of a gas saver... lol my mustang before got around 20 mpg at 70mph on the interstate, i was looking for around 18 mpg atleast but with good low end torque since torque is better fuel mileage, i love that wicked lope but i was told i would want to stay under/around 270 on cam durration for better fuel mileage,?? so not sure but i was thinking maybe a F303 cam since its a roller motor but it will be carburated, and better then a E303, i love the megathumper but i know thats gotta drink up the fuel, i was going dual exhuast with flowmasters super 10 single camber mufflers on each side with a H pipe.. my mustang never had a H or X in the pipe it was just true dual straights and ran awesomely great, is there a big difference in H piping the exhuast or not? i figure $100 for the engine with a rebuild kit, bored 0.30 over with a F303 cam weiand highrise intake with a elderbrock 600-650cfm carb with the msd box duraspark dizzy and a set of headers, and some head work on the E7TE's it should make what.. atleast 375hp maybe? " i really want 400hp lol"Yeah, they'll be fine to use...they're the same heads as what came on 87-95 mustangs not counting cobras. You mentioned wanting something similar to an RV cam-so you just want a little more torque and basically stock idle?
