So some of you may have read my last 2.0 carbed build thread. Well since then I have blown a piston ring. I found a great deal on a 2.3 from a 90s mustang with 93000 original miles. At this point I would really like to keep the efi as I will be getting engine, harness, and ecu. Would this be a fairly easy swap? Should I grab anything else from the mustang?
I figure everything should bolt right in but my biggest concern would be fuel delivery. I dont know if i should mount an external pump off my existing fuel line powered from the fuel pump relay and make my own return line, or swap in an efi tank, fuel pump, and lines.
Has anyone done this swap before? Please feel free to give me any pointers on any aspect of the swap that I may be over looking. Also would my 2.0 intake manifold bolt up? if it would be much eaiser to keep it carbureted I'm OK with that as long as I don't have to swap my old head on.
