Carburator?

For those with vortec heads, what carb are you using? Looking to buy one soon to complete my setup as well as the manifold, and distributor.

Is this an off-road-only car? If not, figure on big problems with Vortec heads and anything other than a computer controlled q-jet at emissions time.

And that's assuming your car is '87-earlier.

And you live in Los Angeles, California, and intend to register it in Los Angeles, California.

What I'm saying is, Vortec heads and a carb ain't gonna cut it at emissions inspection time.
