1981 301 turbo swap to 400
ok..i have a 1981 Turbo T/A that i am putting a 400 into. what i need to know is:
#1 can i take out the cpu and all the extra wires that were used for carb controls and whatnot with out affecting the other electrical items i'll still need (gauges, tach, ect...)
#2 will a gauge cluster from older T/A's (1976 - 1979) work in my 1981 without changing any wiring? i have the speedo that goes to 85mph (lame) and the oil / temp gauge doesn't seem to work so i want to swap the whole cluster.
#3 anybody have any idea if an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake will fit under the Turbo T/A hood??
thanks please e-mail me at ibeflip@aol.com
