1987 Ford Bronco Other - Engine

Question: i have an 87 ford bronco with a fuel injected 302 engine. i am trying to put a 351 engine in to it but the problem is, is that the 351 is carberated and we can't finish replasing the engine. i was just wondering if there are ways to get this engine to fit and work in my bronco.

Technican: yes you can make it match up it is a matter of installing a coil run the power from the ignition side of the fusebox, rewire the distibuter to the diagram of the new engine 351recreate a chase for the linkage so the accellerator would work as with the previous engine 302 the new engine motor mounts may not match up that can be remedied through a welding or machine shop they normally have the specs or you can bring in the sets of motor mounts and they can be speced out what you are trying to accomplish is very common, it will just take some patience and time

Owner: so what about the gas tank what can i do with that and how do i hook up the coil and the plug from the distributor has lass wires cause it is the distributor that was on the 351 not the one of the 302 so the wire hook up in the bronco has more wires than the one on the 351 so what do i do about that

Technican: you can install an electric fuel pump and run the line from the tank then to an external filter to carb, go to a junk yard and get the parts from a non fuel injection engine and rewire it the same as you pull it off better to get a book and follow the schematic, they are much easier the wire than fuel injection you will have to disregard the old fuel injection conponets they will bwe useless

Owner: ok i still have the old truck that the engine came out of would that fuel pump work

Owner: yes it will work fine
