So I am looking at an 85 gt that is very clean. I need to know if anyone knows if I can remove the TBI unit and install a factory carb on it? Quick answers would be apreciated because the end of the auction is tomorrow. Thanks.

I know a guy with a TBI camaro that did. He said all he did was put some adapter plate on and ran the carb. I saw it and it seemed to work fine and was a very basic piece.

I thought '85's were carbed? Worse comes to worse, you can swap the intake (maybe distributor?) and run a carb. Used 302 intakes for carbs are fairly cheap.
