Okay, Im swapping my CFI over to four barrel. Most of the work is done. I need to know if this will work. (Starting to second guess myself.) Also, does anyone know if I can run my electronic advance distributor without the CFI? It advances because of the tach, right? Im confused.

Any idea if Ill blow up that regulator or not?

did you get the manifold?? I assume yes.......anyway since you have a return style system you can regulate it down to proper psi i JUST wired in an elec holley blue pump and used the existing fuel pump wiring to power pump and grounded the leg on the relay under the seat so relay powers pump up in koeo mode

I got the four barrel, but no manifold yet. Itll be here today or tomorrow by my guess. Im picking up a rebuilt distributor and module for an 85 5-speed. I need the one with the steel gear, right?

What year is your car? If its a roller motor (85-up) then you need a steel gear.

Alright, cool. Its an '85 roller motor, and I ordered the right one.
Mjr's carb came in the mail, but the damn manifold is still MIA.
I hate USPS. This is what happens when you let the government run anything.

Nice. Ill BS my roomies into thinking its some kind of super manifold. Hahaha
Im sure it'll get here eventually. Like I said, government run. Not your fault. Thanks for the speedy delivery on the stuff though, it got shipped the day after I paid. We'll do business again Im sure.
