Good thing you don’t have a late 60’s Mustang with an FE. LOL

Had a neighbor that had a 69 car with 428 and one really long Saturday we installing them in the parking lot of the apartment. The bottom bolts were a real challenge. Worst thing eight pipes and no instructions. It did not go smoothly.

I’m lost just looking at the wiring and hoses.

Configuring the car will take a little time. Every channel has to be assigned with parameters. Holley videos are a big help. I think they are very good for us non computer folks it has easy step by step information and playing along builds my confidence

You have more patience than me Larry!! I just pulled the CFI off my 93,000km all original 86 mustang. Pulled that and stuck a 2bbl on. If the timing doesn't stop acting up it'll get a duraspark distributor too! Not into diddling with EFI I guess, looking at simplicity.

I certainly see where it can be beneficial in a higher hp combo though where each cyl can be fueled and timed separately by computer.

Keep it up, loving the thread!
