All I had to change in my SRT-4 was injectors, fuel pump, wideband, get a way to tune it, and bam instant horsepower without having to do a bunch of bolt ons. With injectors that are too small I can push 25-27 degrees of timing advance at wide open throttle while keeping 10.8-11.2 afr.<br /><br />I think the 5.0 would be an even easier transition because the computer is much more basic. Injectors/maf, pump, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, and a wideband should do it <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Blubyu87gt</b> <br /><small>Member # 9427</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2011,4,4,0,23,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Been running E85 for over a year now with stock lines.
