Default FI TO CARB SWAP

hi all. here is my question. I am trying to start my fuel injection to carb swap. I have all the parts but i dont even know where to start. I have looked online and found a few articles but nothing really in detail. Does anyone know of a step by step article for doing this. If not does anyone know where the hell i should begin. Fuel tank, engine bay, msd sysyem mounting too many places to start. Thanks for any help on this.

start with the intake manifold and carb... you will need a fuel presure regulator since you only need about 6-8 lbs presure with a carb, and mount your msd ignition on the inside fender well... Im sure there's more but that's a start...

I already have the intake and carb. Edelbrock performer 289 intake and edelbrock 600cfm 4 barrel carb. Should i mount the msd where the stock airbox went?

Here is a great link to a site that tells you what you need to know about swapping out the EFI for a carb setup.
