86 k5 with fuel injection throttle body to carb swap

[Chad44865]

I got 86 k5 with a 93 fuel injected 350 in it I'm taking off the throttle body unit and and intake in swapping it out for a 4 barrel intake and carb i'm trying to figure out if the block as a hole in itt for a mechanical fuel pump push rod I would just take off the cover plate in look myself but it's a little bit cramped and I cant see that good into it

I think you'll find that an electric fuel pump will be needed

It's hit or miss if there's a hole there or not. If there is currently a blockoff plate then there should be a hole but if there isn't then it definately doesn't have the hole. The bigger question is WHY would you want to go backwards and remove FI in favor of a carb?

EDIT: I just reread your post and since your block currently has a blockoff plate it will have the pushrod hole. GM isn't going to spend money for the plate if it's not required.

The conversion wasnt done rite and I dont wanna deal with the mess of wires and I can get more power cheaper than an ecm chip
