I just finished the carb conversion on my 87. Its more work than you think. I am still using my stock EFI pump. I used a Aeromotive Regulator with bypass from summit.

You will need a shorter throttle cable. I don't know about the AOD as mine is a 5 Speed.

I am using a 85 GT 5-speed dizzy and a duraspark II igintion box. I just got mine running last night.
