replace all the wiring? whoever told you that is an idiot, plain and simple.

You'll need to reprogram the computer, but any number of speed shops will be able to dyno-tune it for you. And yes, it will run fine.

i stroked mine to 386, electrical system is fine......... what fool told you that??

the only thing that would make sense is that you should replace the fuel pump and hotwire it, but other than that all you need is a dyno tune/reprogramming for the increase in displacement
