i am sure marks don't do a kit, delows might. of you can go windsor to turbo 700 to nissan using castlemain and marks gear.
make sure you buy a efi xr 8 one outta the mid 90's coons, dont bother with that carby crap for the small initial cost of and efi one (i have seen them for well under 3k)
cheers bru

its an EFi 5.8L out of a Ftruck
this is what i've found ....
dellows make a bell housing
nissan clutch pack fits
use land cruiser spiggot bush
bronco engine mounts
use after market computer .... and ditch the ford one
ditch fan for thermos
radiator is suffient
