1973 C10 "The Purple Truck"

Basic build
Does yours have the EGR? I want to get rid of it - part of the reason I was asking about emissions testing in the regional forum.
Any of these intakes can be blocked off
 
No EGR.
But I would really love to make you a package deal! If you want to do a TBI swap.
:D
 
I already got a carb after seeing all the trouble people are having with EFI.

Psshhh...first motor sat for a really long time. Should have rebuilt it from the start but took a chance
Either way, now you've made me scared of 8.1 swaps and EFI.....:frown1:

Surely someone makes a 4bbl manifold for an 8.1L.....
 
If you send me that edelbrock carb for free, I’ll put it right next to that Fomoco carb.....in the scrap pile

Yea, Dart makes a carb manifold replacement, and you also need to add a distributor doing that too, since stock its coil pack LS injection. But as stated above, its pretty expensive and IMO not worth it. After going through it all,, the swap really isnt that bad at all...even for someone who hasnt done an LS swap before (like me before the 8.1)
