removing electronic carb and smog
I am removing the electronic quadrajet and smog set up from my truck. I installed an aluminum intake and edelbrock carb. I got the truck running but I have an engine light. I would like to eliminate all the smog parts(California Truck)but I am not sure what to remove. My distributor has extra wires so I guess I will have to replace it with a non computer type HEI. Does anyone have any info on what else I need to do to make it run right. Thanks for any help.

Re: removing electronic carb and smog
As far as the computer controlled HEI goes, you can unplug the 4 wire connector and hook wire A and wire C together. I have done this to my 86, and then your just bypassing the computer. You just set the timing like an older style hei. If someone else knows a different way please chime in. Kaysen
