Putting a 5.8 motor in a 68' does manifold touch hood

[mudlover]

I am putting a 5.8 EFI 1994 fuel injection roller motor from a full size bronco into my 68' bronco

I heard that my hood will hit the manifold Does anybody know if a can get another manifold that

works just as good or better? Does anybody suggest a good wiring kit for it?

I believe that a 2" body lift will give enough clearance. Or chop ur hood and install a scoop. As far as wiring goes Centech and Painless offer an EFI harness but i think it runs about 500bucks. U could also look into the mustang 5.0 intake as it sits lower but i'm not sure about compability.

I have a truck with a 5.8 ('91), that I was going to take the motor from for my Bronco.

I measured & measured, but even with my ProFlow hood it was going to hit.

I had to put a 2" body lift on for my carberated 351W anyway, so I think that between the hood & the body lift I could've made it fit.

Easy fix is to put a car plenum on the top of the 351. You are going to need to get BC Bronco's adapter plate, but it saves a good hood from a hack job or keeps you from having to do a body lift. The truck plenum is about 2 inches taller than the car plenum, which sits under a stock height hood just fine.

shorter plenum probably. The pro-flow is huge. I am running a carbureted 5.8 with a 3" tall filter. It still has room to spare.....oh, but I have a 4" body lift. I guess that is it.
