first car

Post by A M R »

right i really want to get my 360 some time soon. but all i can find are glt's. theres no carbed versions for sale anywhere. if someones got a carbed 360 in good working condition (MUST HAVE POWER STEERING) then gimme a shout. otherwise i'll have to settle for a glt.

whats required for converting injection to carb? what things do i have to take out or put in?

all help would be appreciated. thanks guys.

First of all, with 360's forget model designation... they're all a fair bit older than 340's and the most important thing is to get one in good condition.

Get one, then we can answer your questions in context :)

Go with aGLt as they are better speced cars, Its simple enough to go to carbs - I have manifolds about to convert to carb if you want.
