I want to freshen up or replace my stock 1977 302 w/C4 auto. She runs great but leaks oil everywhere... I guess she a bit tired. I found a 1985 t-bird 5.0 EFI doner with 30k miles and was wondering if this swap would be a good one. I am not a power freak, but want dependability and no carb stumble when off roading. So, will this swap be worth it? Will the EFI add too many $$$ to the project?
Oh, the vehicle has federal smog requirements, and not California (no smog pump). So do any California members have any experience with the referee station game? What year smog level will they hold me too... 1977 or 1985? Federal or California?
I know a bunch of questions, but most of you have lived this before.
