IIRC, the front of the car is to the right in this diagram, I'm not quite sure anymore. But yes, the numbers coincide with the cylinders, so there is a way in which you can align the diagram with your engine.

Hey Bjoern. I have a question about your wiring diagram on the MAF conversion. Is the diagram of the injector wiring from the top view of the engine? Because I'm guessing the injector numbers don't coinside with the cylinder numbers? Thanks
The auto tranny is a problem, because you have a very limited choice of computers. Unfortunately, I have no idea about auto trannies and can't help you there. Conversion to standard is a big deal and not for the faint of heart. I bought a book on Ford EFI which I found to be very helpful and I learned a lot from it. I think it was this one: [link]
hey bjoern, ive had your maf conversion in my favorites forever... i finally rebuilt the engine, but put in a lumpier cam, along with some other minor mods, so now basically, it runs, but with the old map sensor, not so good. thats alot of technical words, and all ive worked on up to this point is oldies with carbs and no EFI, but im learning alot and im loving it. i have one difference, but i dont think it bothers anything, i have an automatic transmission, so if i install the maf system out of a newer pickup it may want to read the e40d when i just have an aod... unless maybe i can find one with a standard transmission?? i dunno, im getting so confused with all this technology, i would like to do it step by step just as you did. can you help me somehow?
As if the move wasn't turbulent enough with the floods and tornadoes and all, now my truck wanted to go on fire! I had just signed the title over to my mechanic who bought it from me. He had paid me half the money and I had agreed to bring him the truck the next day for the other half of the money. A few minutes later, cruising along, I felt the putrid smell of burning plastic. I was just wondering which of the guys in front of me was driving with his handbrake on, when I noticed thick white smoke from behind me. I pulled over, opened the hood and thick, billowing smoke came out of the alternator.Seconds later, there were flames shooting out of the alternator! Luckily, I had pulled into a dealership (Chrysler Jeep on Kirby and 59) and they had a fire-extinguisher nearby. I extinguished the fire just in time: the only damage was to the alternator and one of the plugs going into it. I unplugged the other plug from the alternator and could drive the truck to my mechanic. Phew, what an adrenaline rush! Now I'm at my parents' place in Würzburg and will continue to Berlin in a few days.
