$2000.00 is probably on the low side to convert to EFI 5.0, unless you can do a lot of the work yourself. You will need engine, wiring harness, computer, transmission, exhaust system. Make an estimate and then double it. Converting to carbed 302 may be cheaper, but you could probably beat the carbed 302 power with the Turbo 2.3 for the same money. MM&FF recently did series on both making a Turbo 2.3 bark and converting to 5.0.
