Okay so since I didn't want to do any hacking/splicing I decided to go out and find a wiring harness from a manual 89 5.0.

What are the other items I need to do this conversion?

Just the computer/MAF sensor and intake tubing?

I'm trying to slowly get all these parts together so i can get this done.

 

Yea basicly thats all you have to do if you get the whole harnes. But its going to be even more of a pain trying to route all those wires.

Think of it, your going to have to remove most of the dash, re plug in all the speed sensors, fuel sensors, and injectors.

Its alot more easier just splicing in 4 wires and moving 2 pins. But what ever you want to do its your choice.

 

well, thank god I just found it and didn't buy it... i'm going to read through your MAF conversion post over and over again till I understand it.

thx snake.

 

I bought MAF conversion kit from a company called Interatcive Technologies and was very pleased with everythign about it.

 

you dont have to remove the dash for the conversion and you can leave the motor harness on the car, just the main harness for everything else under the hood

 

can you give me somemore info on this kit? website?

 

I paid $350 it's all Ford Motorsport components and the only difference is that the MAF is refurbished. It looks as good and works as good as new. I found them on e-bay and was really impressed. They usually have kits up for sale. The installation process is slightly more complicated, but is well worth the $300 savings in my opinion.

Just let me know if you still have problems traking them down.

 

ah yes, the FMS kit... I coulda got one of those but they're really expensive and I wouldn't want the stock MAF.
