ArdWrknTrk Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Welcome, Jose! It looks like you are off to a great start and have all the parts you need. Was the 351 available with EFI in South America for 1984? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Yes, welcome José! Glad you joined. Nice truck(s). You are going to be proud of the results. But like Jim, I'm wondering what EFI system you are going to use? And, would you like to be on our map? You can see it at Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu. Also, you are having a bit of trouble with the orientation of the pics. The issue is that your camera or smart phone encodes in the picture information about the orientation when the picture was taken. But this forum doesn't read that information. So you have to open the pic in editing software and save it, which usually re-orients the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I look up the Marti's Report, the vin numbers indicates that the engine was a 351W EFI. However, the original engine no longer exists. I'm going to install a 1994 351W EFI donated from an F250 Atte José Manuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw your post I thought it was the 1984's that you were speaking about. And I did not think the 5.8l engines came fuel injected until after 1986. It is a spacious work shop you show. The Bronco is looking good with it's new paint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
