    I believe the only thing different in the long block was the intake????

    It's tough to find conversion info, seems no one converts earlier engines to EFI. It shouldn't be a problem, 78 was the first year for even-fire engines. Other reason is I don't want to do an engine swap if the current one runs good. Also it's a four speed, which I'd like to keep.

    I do know they made some changes for FWD, well what about the RWD intake manifolds off the Turbo Regal? That should work?
