going to carb offers cheaper, more difficult tuning imo.

anyway you need a carb manifold and a carb, a carb fuel pump, which i assume will work on any non common block since they still have the plate covering where it goe.. but you have a common block so i assume youd have to find a way to lower your fuel pressure a LOT. and then you have to make the computer run the rest of your car without going crazy.. might as well unplug your check engine light.. hahahaha.

actually i dont really know, but why would you want to go backwards if you already have a tbi?

glh fanatic put down 132 whp on his tbi with pretty basic stuff. nothing anybody else couldnt do.. going to carb is just going to add a lot of effort to the equation and possibly make your car uninspectable depending on where you live.
