Personally I really dislike 3.0L transplants. Sure a some more HP, but your high compression, peaky engine is gone and that is a sad thing IMHO.
Correct MFI pump and stacks all there, everything is original. Cold start even works. Engine runs fine. I had the valve timing reset after the top end rebuild got one value too tight. The only issue I face is an idle that wants to be at 1,500 when warm. It get's a second wind at 5-6k. It just wants to go, reminds me of the V8 328 Ferrari I drove two weeks ago. Plenty of power.
