Heh I didnt know this was English class. but seriously now I am just trying to get a little help here and its not with my grammar skills. I was trying to get all my questions out there, but since people have to be the way they are I guess my questions will remain un answered once again. I use to have a respect for this site and I wont let it get shot down by a moderator who decides to poke fun at people well I guess I will have to do this one the old fashined way, trial and error

Ok guys so I tried to get all my points across but I didnt know grammar and spelling was on trial on this forum so next time I will try to ramble a little less.
I just dont like being made look like an a$$ while asking a question that I dont know the answers to. Now back to the original question here, what will happen if I decide to go with a non cc carb. Will I have to get something to lock the trans up, or does it really need to lock up at all? For the timingwould an msd ignition box take care of thiat part?

lol.....ok.
You will need somthing to lock up the tranny. There is an article on how to rig up a manual switch for it here. It's linked in the sticky above. Summit also sells a kit to take care of it. If it actually needs to be locked up or not is a matter of some debate..I don't believe it does. I've seen them run for a long time like that with no ill effects.
No, an MSD box won't do it. You will have to replace the distributer with a non-cc model.
