5.8 would be the best upgrade. Would bolt right up to your transmission and wouldn't require any wiring changes.

Sometimes a fuel pump dying can feel like a worn out engine. Should be easy to check pressure and is quite a bit cheaper than an engine. My '96 was still running strong when I got rid of it, but had to put a fuel pump in the front tank at about 180k, by the time I changed it switching between tanks felt like two different engines. It ran fine on the dying pump, zero hesitations, just felt like about 50 less horses

As as long as the replacement is within the the years I think 87-96 should it just be a straight swap?
Would I need to replace ECU?

i would like to chime in if that is ok. I have a 91’ and I may be facing an engine swap myself. I have a 5.0 with the E4OD. I do believe I am wanting to swap with a 5.8.
