Default Carbureted 2002 Trans Am

Guys I have a few questions as far as converting my car to a carb setup. Has anyone just put a car on there car, but adding the manifold, carb, and coil pack controller? I mean this by just unpluging the injectors and leaving the rest of the stock engine harness on the engine to control the guages and what have you?

youll have to have gmpp single plane manifold and msd p# 6010....

more than likely youll have to push all the factory **** aside and run a 750hp holley....

the best way would be to rewire it and use after market gauges...

there is about 60 lb of wiring in the car that will be useless when you put the carburetor on....


i was going to do that this year but found that it would have been a huge pain in the ***....

and no... you have to unplug all the sensors off the motor...

with the msd software and hardware comes sensors for the crank, cam, and map sensor.... all of those wires will be pushed aside and look like **** unless you cut all that **** out....

Don't drive it on the road or they will fine the hell out of you cause of emissions. I would check you local laws on such swaps most places it's illegal. Unless your driving on the track only!
