V-8 Engine Swap
|
After Tim safely dropped in the 5.0L engine, he began making all the necessary connections from the main electrical harness to all the right sensors and relays. As for the fuel system, the V-6 engine also uses 19-lb/hr injectors, but there are only six of them (obviously) instead of the needed eight for the V-8. The best thing to do is to purchase eight new injectors from Ford (PN M-9593-C302) so you know you're getting a balanced set instead of just two new ones. You also can opt to go with a set of bigger injectors if you plan on modifying the engine later on. As for the rest of the fuel system, Tim assures that the V-6 stock 88-lph fuel pump is adequate for an engine producing up to 300 hp. View Related Article
