EFI swap
 
Hi all, New to the board, have a question. I have an 85 Capri w/302 and 5spd. I am in the process of putting a fuel injection system from an 89 stang, with mass air. I have the computer, and the complete upper and lower assemblies with throttle body and EGR. Have also ordered the main wiring harness from motorsport. has anyone made a swap like this? Any info would be great.
Thanks...

What are you going to use for a fuel system? From what I've heard probably the biggest PITA is to get all of the guages working properly, especially the fuel guage unless you can find a tank from an 86 car.

That gas sender/return dilema shouldn't be a problem. Either drill a hole for about an inch next to the tube already on the fuel sending unit and stick a tube welding it together as if you were doing a home plumbing job. Or you can simply hook the return line up to your drain hole. To pump the fuel I'd use an external fuel pump from say any other 80's truck that was equiped with an electronic fuel pump plenty of these at pull it yourself yards.
