I've been bad James, the paint is hardly dry on my resto and I'm already gearing up for EFI.
Just need a throttle body, the fuel pump/lines and some time and then I'm on it.

), so I figure why the heck not. I wouldn't do it if it were near stock, but with the engine, the T-5 with cable clutch and Global West suspension, what are a few more wires and a funny shaped plenum? 
Ultimately, this follows my blueprint of a stock looking ride (interior and exterior) with modern driving features.I'm going to enjoy it for another month or two as I finish gathering the missing pieces and then I'm gonna' go for it!

Yeah, the Ford Racing crate motor is essentially an EFI motor, I already have a serpentine setup from a Fox body (hence the engine bay doesn't look original) and the wiring for the electric fuel pump (crate motor doesn't have a cam eccentric and I didn't install one as I thought I'd go EFI some day), so I figure why the heck not.
