I currently have a stock (if you dont count my 135db air horn) 1987 Bronco with a weak 302 and I was wondering what do I have to change if I swap in a 351w short block. Also my 302 is fuel injected and I want the 351 to be carbed what else do I have to change?

But, what if I really wanted to make it carbed?
