I think you're off on that weight a bit (more like 4600).

Good find! I'm going to have to keep my eyes open for the stuff to do a MAF swap on mine.

It's really not that bad, you have the hard part done! The harness will pretty much lay right where it needs to go.

What's fun is swapping the entire harness from nose to tail along with all the interior Even that only took a weekend to do.

i am slowly figureing it out ,will have to repin the eec ecm connector www.fordfuelinjection.com has been great so far ,the later maf setups did not use a bap/map which kinda threw me for a minute!
i plan to just take the injector and maf wireing from the old harness solder and splice or maybe use weather pack connector from http://rjminjectiontech.com/
Reuse the ecm pin terminals from donor harness when i repin the ecm connector
delete the knock sensor from donor injector harness....(5.8 does not have place for knock sensor) but that is great cause it is in a terrible place , will be a lot of prework cleaning and inspecting donor harness . The guys at FTE forums http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/index.php along with www.streetstangs.net have been a huge help
