Youre better off with the Carburator.

Hooking up EFI on a Vehicle that didnt have it from the factory is a bitch and a half.

You would gain very little by going to EFI as well. I know guys who have tried to do 302 EFI swaps on Rangers already equipped with EFI and to this day havent got it running right, and that was two or three years ago.

All those sensors, wires, and what not. Keep the Carburator. If you want more power go to a 4BBL, if you want better Fuel Mileage keep your foot off of it.

later,
Dustin
