EFI was introduced on the pickups toward the end of this era, and only the 302 received it.  There is more information regarding EFI adjustments in the 1985-1986 Fuel System Adjustments booklet.

However, as many people want to retro-fit EFI to their trucks, as I am to mine, this page gives info on all of the systems in case you need it for retro-fitting.

In addition, the Oldfuelinjection.com site provides a lot of info on Ford's early EFI systems.
