duct tape a carb where the TB goes

You will need a carb, new lower intake, a fuelregulator (6-9psi), possibly a new dizzy and computer..Not 100% sure on those 2. not to mention throttle linkages and fuel/vacuum lines.

i love the carb. no computer crap to deal with and a whole lot easier/simplier IMO. your going to need the carb, new fuel lines and pump, new distributor, and a few other things.

I got a dizzy for a 72 mustang, an intake, carb, fuel regulator, gaskets. I bought the crane cams XR-i points converter so the dizzy is electronic and no points to worry about. Also has a adjustable rev limiter built in.

The dizzy was like 40 bucks or so with core at advance. I just gave them my dead efi dizzy as core. It will take some tweeking if you buy a cheapregulator to get the fuel right. I am going to buy me a new regulator. The one I have has numbers from 1-5 and I have no idea how much pressure each one is.
IHave a holley 650 and it is plenty enough carb for a mild modded engine. I wouldn't go bigger.
