I think I just figured it out. I was looking at an article that was switching an efi chassis car to a carb, the problem was I was getting a headache looking at how to wire my carb system, to the existing hookups, when in fact, my carb electrical hookups are already there, I'll just need to tear the efi harness off. So since I figured out that I will be able to use my mechanical fuel pump now, my last concern is the distributor. If I read the article right, the 88 engine has roller lifters, correct, which means that the cam is a roller cam right? ( I dont know all the different terms and compatabilities for valve train components yet). The thing is, to use my carbed vaccum advance distributor, it needs to have a steel drive gear to work with the roller cam right? (if in fact it is a roller cam). Alright, lastly, I cannot use my flat tappet cam (the bottom of the lifters are flat, so that means flat tappet right?), with the roller lifters correct, and vice versa (tappet lifters, with roller cam. I am sorry if this is confusing, but I want to get the facts straight so I know what I can and cant use on this new engine.
