Re: Engine conversion

Re: Engine conversion
yes it will work.
just about anything will, the 5L will be at the easier end of the scale and easy to engineer but obviously needs more electrics than the 3L.

Why does it need more electrics then the 3L they are basically the same engine with bigger capacity, still has the mechanical injector pump. The 5L-e will have more wiring because it is EFI
if it ain't broke send it to me i'll fix it!
Re: Engine conversion
yeah the pump is what i was concerned about.

Re: Engine conversion
use the 2.8 pump on the 5L.
Re: Engine conversion
just get a 5L (mechanical injection) not a 5L-E (EFI)
if it ain't broke send it to me i'll fix it!
