i have a 1989 rs camaro with 305 motor with throttle body fuel injection. How would i put a 1976 model chevy motor in it with a carberatuor . thanks

 

unhook all vacuum lines,fuel lines.unbolt the trans from the engine,loosen motor mounts.Remove intake monifold.Pull engine.

 

what about about all the electronics on fuel injection can i throw them away can i take the computer out of it

 

So you are pulling a a low horse powerhigh economy motor and replacing it with a lower horse power low economy motor? OK well its your car. All you metal should bolt up. You will havethree issues, one is you fuel system second is your ignition system and third is the tramissions TCC.

You can find 89 era 305's pretty cheap is it really worth all that work to fit a POS motor in there that will completely remove any valve you car may have had?

 

You will have to toss the computer and wire up your own ignition system. You will have to pull the tank (not a easy job) and replace the sending units, new fuel line (you might make one of the olds ones work)

Replacing your 305 would be a one weekend project costing a few hundred bucks. Getting 1976 engine in your 89 is more like a 4 weekend job and to do it right would cost twice thatas much as replacing your engine. The only way it would be worth it is if the 76 was rebuilt to specs other then that of a 1976 350.

 

the motor has 385 horspower and why would it have to get a new igntion system it has a electeonic distributor on it.
