LX,
The firing order out of the '80 is probably 1-5..., and the B303/E303 is 1-3... Always use the firing order that comes with the cam, Ford might have changed firing orders but they did not change cranks. What transmission does the truck have in it? A tranny with a lower ratio first would do good. You'll be loosing some torque from the pinion angle. If the E303 provides more low end torque I would go with Skyman's recommendation, but I would in that case step up to the Performer RPM intake. Witch ever way you go I think you'll enjoy the Truck, defiantly be noticeable!
