Is it possible to replace the stock L31 heads and intake manifold with the heads and intake manifold from a carb setup?
I have access to an entire engine out of a 71 Nova and was wondering what would have to be done to convert my stock L31 to accept a carbureted fuel system. The reason I'm considering the idea is that I'm currently having issues with my current fuel system and dont have the money to upgrade/ fix it and figured that going to a carbureted setup would be a cheaper alternative since I have most of, if not all of, the needed parts. Plus, most of, if not all of, the labor would be on my hands.
And if it is reasonably possible to convert, what would be the pros and cons of a carb over CPFI? I've heard that fuel economy would not me ideal, but what else?
