You can hardwire your AC, you can actually buy a Idle control solenoid from Holley and the bracket as well and put it on your carb, and run a vacumn line to the solenoid, so when you turn the A/C on the car will not bog down, some people have done this, But most just hardwire it, and when they kick the A/C on they let it bog down, or just give it a little gas.

Okay how did you want to have your electric fuel pump to kick on? With the key in the on position or withthe flick of a switch? If you want the pump to turn on with thekey, first off you will need to upgrade the pump wiring? There are two wires in the dash that control the fuel pump with the key on, Let me know if you want to do it that way or another being with the flick of a switch.

you could do what i am doing and run a GM HEI setup, you can get a complete aftermarked setup for less than $150, one wire hookup, all done!

a duraspark distributor came on alot of cars, just remember that, you dont have to have a mustang one, but you do have to run the roller cam gear if you get a different one than from a 5.0 roller (85) .....

im using the stock efi fuel pump, its already wired up. I don't have to rewire do I? I have settled on the MSD Dizzy, 6al, and MSD coil. I want to leave the harness in the car, but will everything work? I want to keep the controls as stock as possible, for the ac, ac fan and such.

You'll need to get a new fuel pump too, one for a carb. The stock EFI pump will crank out way too much pressure for a carb. Don't ya just love all the crap that goes along with changing things around?

I have the A1000 Aeromotive efi to carb regulator so I can keep the stock efi pump.

hmmm, i'm sure if you just disconnect the correct pins from the ecu everything would probably still work... but i'm not 100% sure.....

you can use your TFI coil if its in good shape they work great and have plenty of power, just as much as the Blaster and they are more reliable.(have had alot of blasters fail on me before)

Don't you have to get some type of adapter from MSD to run it on a TFI coil?
