No kit that I know of. Msd 6010, Carb fuel pump and reg (recommended), If you take out your computer you will need all new gauges.

I actually just finished my carb swap on my 02 z28. As far as the computer you can just depin the computer of the fuel injection stuff. I'm curious as to why you want to carb swap?

Just answering the question.

Please don't buy the edlbrock "KIT". Get the MSD 6010 or 6012 for the year and model engine and the correct edelbrock intake for the heads.

I used a lokar cable with a stock pedal and used the factory clip that clips into the pedal.
