I'm swaping my 2.3 for the 302...I've done alllot of research...(see page 6 of my site if you like)

I've got to change the engine harness wiring and computer, tranny, driveshaft, rearend(or I'll blow out), run the fuel lines to the opposite side of the car, fuel pump(I'll likely just swap out the whole tank).

If you go carb...it's much easier.

I'm chosing the hard way...becaue I want to have fuel injection....

Fuel injection is the best method. You might want to consider updating the radiator to at least one from a V8. You might want to think about the three row aluminum and an electric fan system with adjustable thermostat. Cooling is so important...
