Default TPI/TBI To Carb.

Well, i know where i can get a 1992 Camaro for $300. I'd really like it but i want carbeuration. What can you guys think of that i would need to convert? All i can think of is a new intake manifold, a carb, and a fuel pump.....

Why do you want a carb? Those are the worst if you plan on daily driving it, very tempermental. Dont dump money into a beater, that camaro will end up being a bottomless pit.

Carbs require more tune ups and are very tempermental with temperature. Trust me, if its a DD you want fuel injection.
