The injectors in my 92 mustang engine are the stock 19lb/hr
Researched and found the injectors from a stock 87 thunderbird 5.0 are 14lb/hr (correct me if I'm wrong)
So my question is, would using an 87 thunderbird ECU have issues with my 19lb/hr injectors? Buying an 87 Thunderbird wiring harness for my engine swap... Should I not buy an 87 ECU with it, or can I simply plug in and use 92 ECU from the mustang?
Thanks!

i think everyone here will agree with this statement.. STANG HARNESS and ECU
Mustang ECU if you are using mass air
Right on.
The stang harness won't plug & play though...? I don't really want to re-pin everything.. Tell me why I should use stang harness?
Use a 5.0 Thunderbird Harness,add the Mass Air to it,install a Mustang ECU and there you go. Stang harnesses,if I remember right,are not a direct swap into the Birds. They are different. It took a short amount of time to do the Mass Air swap. 6 wires..add two,move two,tap in to two. Done.
That's what I figured!
Found a tbird harness with mass air already added. That harness is ALLLL MINE!
You guys rock.
So 19lb mustang/explorer injectors are not plug and play with a stock 88 thunderbird computer?
No they are not. You need a HO computer (and HO cam) to run 19lb injectors.
Thank you! I ran into this problem. Now I know.
