Why go carb'd? what was the main issue you ran into? Im runnin a 2000 lsi/ 4l60 in an 85 t/a. Im goin with the efi setup to keep the economy. probably 3500 stall and 4.10s. did u fab up your own headers and what type of exhaust are you running. I'm doin all of the wiring myself so its basically a total stab in the dark since im rewiring the whole car as well. any pics or suggestions you have as far as fuel delivery or whatever let me know thanks. also as far as the accesory guages temp, volt, tach, oil pressure, it would be greatly appreciated.

Going carbed was just my preference, plus the price of a FAST 90/90 setup was a little out of my price range. I did fab my own headers. The pics I have are in this thread

Nice video man. I finally got mine running and now I'm just waiting on my new transmission. What exhaust do you have? I'm putting 3" duals w/H-pipe and 10series flowmasters.
