351w computer and wiring question.

I am about to swap my 93 lightning engine into a 88 fox-body (5.0 shell). I have heard you can use the mustang computer and wiring harness and it will work fine with mild to moderately modified 351w (which is exactly what I'm running). My question is, should I use the truck computer and wiring harness or the mustang 5.0 computer and wiring harness to complete the swap. Any info on the computer and wiring process would be great!

Thanks

Wire it up just like it was a 302...

I would use the 5.0 ecu and harness, it shouldn't be too tricky...

What ecu are you using?
MAF?

No it isn't MAF... The 93 lightnings were not MAF and neither were the 88 mustangs I believe. I plan on converting but for right now it will not be MAF.... Will all of the wiring be the same converting it over to the 5.0 computer and wiring harness from the 5.8 computer and wiring harness?
