OK, well, i baught a 4 banger today because it was too good of a deal to pass up. Now, my question is, should i go with the EFI 302 or since i have to change everything anyway, should i just go bigger with the 351?
I heard that when you do swaps that the check engine light comes on, is there a way to stop that? I was thinking of getting a wiring harness from Painless and running a "Stand alone" engine management with the A9L computer. Since the painless harness is just the engine management, will that affect anything?? like my gauges or warngin lights?
Also, I will be driving this as my daily driver so i dont want to go with a carb. I really want to go EFI, i just dont know if the 302 would be a better option(eas of install) over the 351(possibly harder to install)
Anyway, any comments would be much appreciated.
