Sorry Rick I got the '95 with MPI and the swap isn't quite as easy. But I've
been chatting with Eric quite a bit on this subject (he seems to be the 5.9
guru on this list, or at least the most talkative one) and he's got me
thinking this isn't too hard. Alot harder than a supercharger, but definately
do-able and emissions legal. i need time to do some more research...I'll keep
everyone posted.
