Default 86 questions!!

Hey any help would be appreciated. Got some questions.

I am planning on gettin some mods for my 86 f150. first off i would like to switch to a electric fan instead of belt driven. I am wondering what all i need, fan,wiring, relays? etc. then next is speed dens to mass air. pretty much same question. what all do i need? i am going to be goin to wreckage yard soon and gonna see if i can find some stuff maybe from a ol stang. or since its efi could i get a "tune" or is it too old for that? also id like your opinion on what id like to get.

new intake
longtubes
2.25 true dual straights (4 inch tips), (might get a x pipe)
.030 bore and new pistons
aftermarket heads/ or gt40 heads-cant decide
cam-(more hp. i like lope idles), and lifter kit
intake manifold
injectors?
shift kit
lower gearing
underdrive pulley
positrak

Hi I'm new here and did not want to make a thread for my query but found this thread appropriate for Q&A (as I don't own the Ford F150 on this one)
here goes:

My uncle in Carson, CA has a Ford F150 1983 model bought from the used scrap yard and currently restoring the vehicle with a meager and limited budget. I wanted to pitch in with some electronic parts to help.

I'm looking at these after-market ##Turn Signal Lens from Replacement. Here's the image and corresponding catalog:

Basing on the description I have provided, can anyone confirm that this Turn Signal Lenses are applicable to the year models listed above? I plan to purchase them and pay via online and use my uncle's address as recipients.

Thanks in advance and sorry for the bother.

yes it will fit. but i would recommend starting your own thread on that truck if you plan on asking more questions because your question has nothing to do with the OP's questions
