To use a carb instead, you simply use a different intake. Fuel pump:if you want to use an electric pump then your ok. A mechanical pump will mean finding a timing cover from a pre efi car since the timing cover for that one will have no port for a fuel pump. All guages will hook up indifferently because, as I said before, the efi computer has no affect on anything but monitoring air and fuel <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
