ok i was given a 1984 ford thunderbird (3.8L tbi) i was needing to know if it will hook up to my T5 trans and what would be need to change it over to a carb.
As far as I know the trany should bolt tight up. To convert to a carb you need a special intake like the one below and a fuel pressure regulator to keep the pressure down to 7 psi. You can run the stock fuel pump if you keep the return line connected.
Is there anyway for me to keep the tbi with out redoing a complete rewire of the car? way cant i just keep the manifold that is on it and just bolt on a carb.?
