I have been torn about what engine I have wanted in my old 78' F150 stepside 4x4 for a long time, has a 300 bored over 0.030" stock speed pro hyper pistons, zero deck, stock head shaved 0.010" with mild valve job, Crane 260H cam (love the torque curve), Offy C and a 500 Edelbrock, EFI manifolds, true dual 2.5"
Have budgeted for a Coyote 5.0L swap but I still love the look on peoples face when I pull into the parking lot with my "pissed off tractor". So gonna keep the 300 but want EFI, thinking Megasquirt.
Recently posted in the MS forum and a gentleman brought up interesting topic, using the 300 EFI intake and parts etc for the MS swap. I have personally been thinking using my current setup with the Offy C being bunged to accept MPFI and fuel rail, use a GM TBI for TPS, IAC, with no fuel (have one off a 305, HD Mech at a mine and parts are readily available for "free"), would be a rather cool setup and possibly perform better.
So here is my question for you guys as my experience as far as intake tuning is limited, what intake setup would work best for my application. Custom MPFI Offy C, or stock EFI intake manifold?
Money really isn't a big deal as I have a healthy budget for this engine.
