the VG has been an EFI motor since it's inception.

Why would you want to go backwards?

Kick up an intake for an old TBI style and then youll need an adapter for put on a carb.

thanks Alex. Was that a 3.0 or a 3.3. I am pretty sure that the blocks are the same. Not sure about intakes.

Its a 3.0 but the intakes are interchangeable .. main differnence on them is the crank snout is longer, cam and crank gears (round vs square teeth) and the exhaust manifold bolts are 10mm vs 8 mm .. but intake stuff is the same
