Motor Swap Questions

Guys I have a few questions, I tried searching but havent had much luck altough it may be scattered throughout the board.. I planned on swapping a nicely built small block into my 85 shortwide but i think i want to change plans... What would i need to put a 87-95 motor (pre vortec) in my truck and keep it carbd? would i need any special wiring or sensors? They make carbd intakes for these motors correct?

Re: Motor Swap Questions

All you need is a 87-95 Tbi to carb intake. (I have one by the way) Plus maybe exaust manifolds.
