    Interesting the 86 still came with a fuel pump eccentric, but one that is thinner and not viable as an actual part to run a fuel pump.  I have seen those before, on an 86 5.0 I bought.

    It IS thinner! (or just the angle of the camera shot?!)......Ain't that interesting?!  Wonder what FoMoCo was thinking.....

    No idea, in '86 they had EFI.  SD EFI, but EFI nonetheless.
