Everything can go if your going carb as far as the main harness under the hood and injector harness. You'll need to lower fuel pressure so you'll either need to run a new low pressure pump and new fuel lines. ( correct solution ) or try to regulate your current high pressure pump down to about 6 pounds. Do a little research. There is a ton of info out there on the EFI to carb subject.
