I'm lost. How do you know it's not a 92? Where does it say it has a carb?

you can look at the picture and tell it has a carb. I believe '86 was the last year for carb ( correct me if i'm wrong )

That's a picture of a 92 RS with TBI, I know cause I have one. I think everything Chevy put TBI on they used round aircleaner on cause it fits on quadrajetcarb also. They were just using up old stuff

You don't believe I have a 92RS? Have seen engine compartment on 92RS with stock 305 and TBI?

That was partly my fault because I didn't know they used that Air Cleaner on the TBI cars. My bad. I've only seen those the Carb cars, like mine.

That's Ok, now you know. I had a 74 Chevy truck with the same looking air cleaner housing except it was taller so a taller element fit inside, of course we flip the lid over so it would breathe better.
