Going To Carbed 2.3


So all this wiring non-sense is driving me crazy with this 2.3 turbo swap so i think im going to take a step back and do a carbed setup.
I need:
-A carb adapter
-carb. (350-390cfm)
-carb. hat

Am I going to need a new fuel pump? ALso will I need a different distributor than the EFI one I have in right now? PLease let me know if im leaving anything out. -Brandy

Brandy, I don't have much time now, but I will post later on this, since I have done this countless times. If you are boosting less than 12 PSI, then you can use a stock mechanical fuel pump as a pressure compensation valve, by drilling and tapping a hole in the top of the pump housing and running a hose from the pump to the pressure bonnet, but your block may not have provision for the mechanical pump. Using a Maserati Bi Turbo pressure regulator is also a possibility. What the hell am I talking about? More later....

Look on Ebay for one of these. Maserati bi-turbo fuel pressure regulator.

Amazon has these.



The Carter GP5001 model pump flows over 227 gph and is preset at 20 psi, which you will need in order to compensate for boost pressure.
