5.0 in 85

[BoostedGT]

what throttle cable should I use in my ranger with a 92 mustang 5.0?

 

[RangerSVT]

Efi, or carb? Efi I'd use the mustang or 97+ explorer 5.0 cable, carb the ranger...

I'm goin efi. Just ordered the motor. Next is oil filter relocate. C4 Trans. Explorer radiator. 92 mustang computer. And ford racing harness. Anything I'm forgetting?

Mustang motor mounts, 88400 or 70's tri Y headers, 86-92 fuel tank (unless runing a fuel cell), efi fuel lines & system, inertia switch, and a build thread with lots of pics

Possible to use ranger tank?

 

[RangerSVT]

Yes, but I believe the carb and efi sending unit assembly is different sizes, you may need to swap in an 86-97 tank...

What about a inline fuel pump?

 

[RangerSVT]

You could use that, but I'd stick with an intank pump for trouble free operation. Ford used this setup so the system wouldn't cavitate. If you must use the inline setup, get it as close to the tank as you can. Tank, filter, then pump. I'd add a high pressure filter between the pump and motor as a precaution, but thats me.

Ok let's say I go for a reasonably priced fuel cell sending unit and pump

88400's fit great with a bodylift, without a bodylift the ps will point at the firewall.
