Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows about a webpage that shows the steps involved with the swap of the original 289 for a 5.0L with 5 speed and full computer harness?

Thanks!
Scott

Mustangs Plus had a page up detailing what all was required. I think they just put the EFi manifold on a 289. but a 5.0 would be the same, except the radiator would need to be changed to work with the reverse flow serpentine water pump. I think the most exspensive part would be the wiring harness to run the computer and such. That's what put me off from going EFI.

Here's the link for their EFI page;
