1991 302 to carb

Can I use a 1991 Fuel injected and change it to Carbureted for my 1970 maverick and is there something i need to do with the water pump, cam or my c4

 

Just a new intake manifold. Water pump, cam, and trans won't know the difference (unless you tell them, so be quiet when you do it!!!

 

i think but not positive uneed fuel pump

 

Here;s what you do:

Thanks for the info

 

now if you change the pullys to the older style V belt you will have to swap the water pump because it's a reverse rotation water pump

WELCOME FROM Sacramento CA

and if you want to run a manual fuel pump you would have to put the older timing cover on it

or you could run a electric fuel pump just make sure you put it in the back by the gas tank because thoes pump's push the fuel beter than they can suck it

 

Is the waterpump reverse rotation


Edit:30272mav!

 

Just wanted to add don't forget the eccentric on the camshaft timing gear to drive the fuel pump if doing it this way

 

you will probably have to swap oilpans also,which leads to oil dipstick issues

 

LOL, you mean mechanical fuel pump, a manual would have a crank on it...

 

Depends on what application the 5.0 is from. The Crown Vic, Lincoln Towncar and Merc Marquis never used a reverse rotation pump.

 

He will also need a distributor with a steel cam gear too, if the motor has a roller cam.

 

don't all serpinton belt setups have reverse water pumps ???

 

The Vic setup uses the same flat ribbed belts as the serpentine does, but by definition isn't a serpentine setup. It's often confused with a serpentine setup but the pump is std rotation like a V-belt

 

You need a front sump oil pan, A timing cover with the dipstick for front sump and the oil pick up for the front sump pan. That will give you the option for the use of a mechanical fuel pump. With the fuel pump You will need the cam excentric. I am finding that it gets even more interesting from there.
