You can use any carb intake. If you get one for a 86 or earlier sbc then you will need to grind the center 4 bolt holes because your head bolt angle is diffrent. You will also need a new distributor, any HEI vaccume advanced distributor will work.
I have a Holley Street Dominator intake, Edelbrock Performance Series carb, and a Flame Thrower HEI distributor that I would be willing to trade for a complete TPI setup, computer, distributor, intake and runners, injectors, sensors, throttle body., wiring harness. stuff like that.
The car is my daily driver though, so we would have to work out some kind of deal if you would be interested.
CAN YOU SEND ME A PICTURE OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IN YOUR CAR (NOT ALL OLD AND CRUDDY) I GOT 2 TPI SETUPS
My engine bay is very dirty, the motor not so much, mainly the fender wells and such, but as of right now this is the only picture I have:
I can get another picture tomorrow with the air cleaner off if you need. Can I get some pics of your setups as well?
Not sure if you would be willing to work it out like this, but I need my car for daily driving since I don't have anything else. If we were to trade, would you be willing to send the TPI stuff to me, and then I can install it and get my car running and then I can ship everything off to you? Maybe I could give you something in the meantime so you know I won't just take your stuff, because I'm not out to do that.
The carb as far as I know is not that old, it needs fine tuned, and I do have a kit with all of the stuff to do that. The intake as far as I know should work with yours, are your setups from a 350 or 305? My stuff is off of a 305, not an original Camaro motor either, but it's just like any other SBC.
Anything you want to know/see just let me know and I will do my best.
I tried to PM that to you, but I guess you cannot receive PM's for some reason.
I have one Carter Competition AFB Carb. 600 cfm. Part number 9605s. Still shiney should work perfect. Similar to Edelbrock. $110. Let me know if somebody can use it.
