well, as you said you are on a time constraint somewhat, as you love to drive your bronco more than fix it like most of us, but just look at it like this the money you save on doing it yourself can go towards other goodies. as for those that said they did it for $300, $400 and such they are very lucky or good even for 1K is good. i got alot of stuff from the junker but still some stuff needs to be new, and little stuff adds up quick.
-Upper and lower intakes GT40 of 96 explorer $75 junkyard
-93 complete mustang efi harness $125
-A9L ECU $125
-2 bosch O2 sensors $100
-dizzy $15 junkers
-carter low pressure pump $75
- high pressure pump from jegs $50
-6 port fuel selector $40(i think) i have 2 tanks
-MAF 70mm $40 ebay
-throttle body $30
-high and low pressure lines $50 i think
- other misc i cant think of but i was somewhere north of 1k
I did all the work myself and i am happy i did not waste the money on labor. did that in the beginning and i could have put 3k of labor into new trans and other needs
but your coin your choice. hope i helped.
