Is possible to add a 351 fuel injected engine to a 2000 mustang gt? Do the factory speedometer still fuctional? What computer do I need to purchase or the gt computer works? Any one make this conversion?

Sure, anything's possible with enough $'s

As for the speedo.. what tranny did you want to use?

You can probably use the computer from the vehiclethe 351 engine came from (a truck?)

You can buy an aftermarket computer to take care of anything you need. www.fordfuelinjection.com has a summary of computers available.

Doesn't the engine just have to have an OBDII ECU?
