recently bought a 1979 2.3 turbo motor and after reaserching found out that, in carbed form, its a worhtless motor,without telling me to junk the motor, is there any possible way i can just use the block and heads and add the fuel injection parts?

well I believe that you can convert it to fuel injection, but as far as the hoops you will have to jump through, I would try the folks at turboford.net. if there is anyone out there that is able to help you it would be those guys

Theres not much in those motors, best you can do is to get a head from a fuel injected mustang that has the parts it needs for injectors and a computer from a turbocoupe. Just dont get the heaqd from the EDIS with the dual plugs and such. Better yet find a Ranger and take the head and cam from it, you can use TC injectors or Mark VIII injectors IIRC. the Ranger cam is a roller and will free up a tad more hp. Also the Rangers throttle body till you can find a bigger VAM or a MAF setup. Turbofords will be better help although its a turbo its still a 2.3 much things apply to them. another thing is if you ever decided to just get rid of the turbo all toghether, plug up the oil feed in the block and get a Ranger header. 2.3's make the most HP when they are Turboed or n/a carbed.
