What exactly do you mean by combo? You say you don't want to crack into the motor, so does that mean you don't want to do heads/cam/etc? Or just that you don't want to get into the shortblock?
I said windsor... so far we were looking at a vic jr spyder EFI with injectors... and he lives downtown SF so we are not going to mess with the exhause right yet, just minor bolt ons... this motor is coming out of a 92 bronco eddie bauer edition and im gonna drop it into a 87 ranger for him, i figure that alone should be pretty good.

Downtown SF, as in San Francisco? Are you concerned about staying smog legal?

Okay, my suggestion is to do the swap with the motor 100% stock, and get it ref'd that way first. Then do whatever mods you're thinking about doing after you've got the new sticker.

It's not a matter of producing more or less emissions, it's a matter of whether or not that part has a CARB number. If it doesn't, no matter how clean the motor burns, you'll fail smog.

So would CARB: Database: Aftermarket Parts Database of Executive Orders
EDIT: Did a search there, and NO Edelbrock intakes are smog legal unless it's going on a '84-'98 Harley Davidson.
LOL reverend is trying to help and you kinda ignored it, put the motor in get it inspected then mod it lol
