Introduce myself to third gen...

Hi my name is Roger and I'm new to this site... This is my first build...I have a 1986 project camaro I am building that was originally a V6... body is straight and primered, small block 355, rear end switched out from a 1992 Iroc, shocks upgraded, 350 turbo tranny, new tranny cooler, new 2 core aluminum radiator, new eldelbrock 650 carb, new aluminum intake, new MSD ignition, new alternator. I posted a thread earlier looking for help wiring everything up but no replies so I thought I'd introduce myself to break the ice. Can anyone give some tips or advise on where to go from here?

Hi Roger, welcome to the site.

I took a look at your other wiring posts and the reason I suspect nobody replied was because the question was way too generic. To run a carbed motor you need like 3 wires, basically keyed power to the coil, power to the coil, and a starter wire. However, that doesn't really make for a drivable car.

Also to note, a 1992 IROC is a Dodge Daytona, I suspect your rear end is not out of that. The Camaro IROC ended in the 1990 model year, Dec 31st, 1989 to be exact.

Ok... I did not realize that...1992 Camaro Z28 that had a 350 TPI. I have that motor torn apart to rebuild it. That is the donor car that the rear end came from.
