i got an 85 camaro that was choped all wirers were cut from wiring harness need help getting it back to running condition has the original 305, distributor, and has 600 holley carb not sure what problems it will cause but would like to get it back to normal if possible

 

If you are going to keep the Holley, then you need a non-computer controlled distributor. Your car will not run right without it. Reason being, the ECM will be looking for certain data that the old computer controlled carb gave it. Without this data, the computer will be telling the distributor to act wierd, therefore making your car run like total crap. Its hard to explain but believe me.

You can get a non-CC distributor form anywhere, Junk Yard or whatever. Just make sure its in good shape. Once you install the dist., you wont need the ECM anymore, at this point its useless anyways. The only other thing you might have to do is rig up a switch to manually turn on you fans (if electric), or wire them up so they come on when the car is turned On.

Hope this helps, or maybe its something you didnt want to hear. Also, give us some more info on the car, Old carb, motor (LG4?), tranny (I'm guessing 700R4), Torque converter (locking, non-locking), etc... You might get more help on the tranny board also.
