OK i'm putting my 347 into my '83 now, after going back and forth with thinking of selling both i have decided to keep them. but the '83 has no wiring in it pretty much and for the easy and clean factor I'll be switching my 347 to a carb setup. so, what all will I need? as far as I know the main things are a intake and carb obviously, ignition box of some sort. now the questions i have is can i make my stock distributor work? and what do I have to do with the fuel system? Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on the subject for me. I tried searching but every time i try and search it comes up with zero results no matter what i do

after a few talks with all my carb buddies I got recommendations for most of the parts, tell me what you guys think of the combos, vic jr intake with a holley 750 carb, msd box and msd distributor, and for fuel system a holley blue pump and holley 803 regulator.

looks good, I'd be curious to see how well it does with the victor jr...I run a ported air gap and it runs well but I'd like to see if a vic jr would give me some more top end.....how long until it'll be track ready??

Probly mid summer, july or so. I have to get the motor back to my house so i can start selling the efi parts to help fund the carb swap. I got a 31 spline rear for free just have to put a new set of gears in it. then just gotta find a c4 which are pretty dime a dozen around here.

Vic Jr. will work good if the 347 has any sort of good cam in it. Needs some good heads also.
Mine had all kinds of top end with only a 650 Holley on it......
