simple..

intake,carb, 85gt throttle cable, an a different dizzy also maybe coil. I think that about sums it up.

Ask 66 AC COBRA i think he just did the swap also.

You need a stand alone ignition system like an MSD box or use the Ford duraspark.

you can use either a mechanical pump or an electric made for a carb. they also make regulators to make your efi pump work with a carb
