1993 5.7 TBI to carb in a '69 questions.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a '69 that is apart....completely. My son-in-law has a '93 4WD with a bad transmission. It looks like he's gonna part it out. Before you jump to conclusions, I gotta tell you the truck looks like he drives by ear and is deaf. The left side is still on the truck, but I don't know how.

Anyway, I was just wondering if the engine in it would be decent if converted to run a carburetor, in my '69?

I know that there are a few people here who have carbureted their engines in their OBDI vehicles. So, I'm hoping one of them will tell me what I need to do to make it happen, successfully.
