Hello everyone,

New to the forum and have a few questions if anyone can find the kindness to help me. Ive read the megamanual and the faq and I have a basic idea of what I need but I was hoping to find someone running a setup similar to mine. Ive got a1993 f-150. Its a 4.9l  300 I6 with speed density (obd1) EFI (12lb injectors) 5spd manual. When I installed the new engine I removed the A.I.R. pump/equipment as well as the EGR. Just looking to see what hardware youre running and if maybe you have a base map to get me running after I make a hardware decision.

Haven't tuned one myself, but the electronics are similar to our 5.0 Mustang write up.

I'm running a 300 inline Ford 6 in my street rod with a MSII. I set it up like a 5.0L only changing the number of cyl. to 6, 6 squirts per cycle and 14 lb injectors. I've made no changes other than idle speed and it runs fine.
