I just bought a 302 from an early 80's Cougar and found out when i picked it up that it had a throttle body setup(TBI), not a carb. I'd like to use a carb, because the throttle body on this particular engine (1983) is very restrictive, and I'd like to be able to use a 600cfm 4bbl carb instead. I will also replace the cam and cylindar heads as well, so its not like I think that the throttle body is the source of all evil.

Anybody know how I would go about doing this?
