The time has come, and Im going to do the EFI swap in my 78 Fury. The local Ecology has half price day every Tuesday and Thursday, so I can get a complete 5.9 Magnum and A500/518 trans out the door for under $200, complete with wiring harness and computer. I am no stranger to the wiring involved. My question is the trans. I heard somewhere that the floor doesnt have to be cut to fit the OD on a late-B. I know the trans crossmember has to be modified, but what about the torsion bar crossmember? I am planning on grabbing the whole setup out of a 94 or 95 to stay OBD1. Will the A518 fit, or am I stuck with the A500? Whats everyone runing for a fuel pump. I did a search, but only came up with rather vauge (generic) information. Any Magnum swappers out there?
