EFI Parts: Need ID

Just bought my first Mustang: 1966 Coupe, 289/2B, 3-speed. It's been parked in a warehouse in Carson City, NV since 1992. It runs, but poorly. I plan on rebuilding the 289 and adding EFI as well as a T-5.

I purchased what is supposed to be a 1988 EFI setup: upper/lower intake manifolds, injectors, computer and wiring harness(es) from a friend who purchased it off eBay. He never went through it and I bought it sight unseen for $160. I pulled it out today to see exactly what I had. I took pictures and posted them here: adventura.ws/EFI/

So, now I'm trying to figure out exactly what it is I purchased. I'm not quite sure what it came out of and I'm not too concerned about that as long as it works.

1. I'm pretty sure this is a MAF system, but am ignorant and need confirmation.

2. There are numbers cast into the intake manifold. Is there a site/book to decipher these?

3. Does this look somewhat complete? I've got three parts of one harness, the injector rails/injectors, computer, and manifolds. To someone with knowledge of all this: what am I missing? There are obvious things, like O2 sensors but someone with a more experienced eye can tell me more. What other parts should I gather?

4. Is there a very good book or website that details a parts list needed for this kind of conversion?

5. Where can I get a wiring diagram for the EFI harness? I'd like to inspect and repair anything prior to installation. I assume there is a factory wiring diagram, but is there anything else out there that specifically references an install like this? As in how to mate this with my current electrical system? (For reference, I have rewired this vehicle with a painless wiring model specific harness.)

6. Any suggestions for cleaning this mess up, like media blasting the manifolds and a clear coat? Or is a straight soak in parts cleaner all that is necessary. Also, any performance suggestions for cleaning up the stock manifold, etc?

The images are numbered sequentially, so if you have any comments, please reference that number if you can. That way I won't be chasing my tail.

Thanks again in advance.

Jeff
I'm about 8 months out on rebuild and am trying to get as much together as possible. Any input is appreciated and thanks in advance for your help.

Re: EFI Parts: Need ID

Here is the FORD RACING KIT INSTALLATION GUIDE-

Ford Multiport EFI Wiring Manual

It will help you with the changeover.

When the upper plenum is mounted atop the lower, which way does the throttle body point (driver side or passenger-from driver's seat)?

Are there any stampings/calibration codes on the ECM?

Re: EFI Parts: Need ID

looks like you have everything you need other than the vehicle side plugs for the main body harness.

here's the diagram i used:



(i stole it from somewhere but i dont recall from where.)
