ok like many others i have decided to go carbed. main reason is the person that owned the car before me did a real hack job on the wiring harness of the car and now i have little problem that need to be fixed or removed. so i did a search and think i have everything i need for the swap could someone put some input in to as if i need something else OR an solution to my messed up car???

!. intake and Carb
2.85 dizzy
3. i plan on going the cheap rout and taking out the stock fuel pump and putting a piece of hose in the tank, or a sump havent decided
4. holley blue fuel pump
5.return style regulator
that should be about it right?

any input would be greatly appreaciated.

throttle cable or just do what i did and make your own bracket.... plug wires.... duraspark box... think i paid 125 for dizzy, small cap, rotor, and box from autozone..make sure to the dizzy for a 85 5 speed for the steel gear... need any help let me know... while its still fresh on my mind....

your running same setup i am... holley blue is loud as hell too lol

If you have the time and money just go ahead and put sump in your stock tank and run your fuel line that way

hey thanks man, one question which wires do i remove after i take out the efi? oh andi know all about the blue pump i have one on my Cummins

fyi, dont waste the extra money on a return style regulator, blue doesnt flow enough to warrant a return line. get you a 15 dollar summit style reg and be done with it

is there anywhere i can grab on of these instead of ordering it? like autozone or something?

[86er]

no, but hell shouldnt take but a day or two to get one, or find a local speed shop, something like that should be on their shelf

there is two seperate harnesses on these cars... just remove the one that goes to the computer. unless u have a/c then u have to cut apart ur harness.

heres a little before and after shot of mine, maybe you can get some ideas of what you need.
heres a list of what i can think of
1.A1000 pump (got a good deal on it)
2.bought in in tank sump style thing, looks like the old fuel pump but with 2 AN fittings on the top.
3.Aeromotive reg. (with the holley blue you dont need a return line, you can just do a dead head system)
4. carb
5. intake
6. fuel log for carb
7.throttle cable (lokars comes with a braket)
8.return springs
9. filter
10. misc. fuel lines and fittings
