Carb mod.

Yes I searched and I am sure it is somewhere in there but I can't seem to find it.
I was wondering what needs to be plugged or removed from the stock intake or carb when I put my full RB exhaust on.

when i went to install my headers i had this same problem and could not figure out what the heck i was supposed to plug or use the block off plate for!!!

while on the passenger side of the car looking into the engine bay....on the side of the intake manifold that is facing the firewall there should be a little elbow that sticks off and runs underneath the car the triangle shaped plate goes here...

Then you have the air pump to take off which means all the emissions can now go too!!

Both of these things im talking about can be seen in the Rats Nest Removal....

I saw the carb rebuild part. I was wondering if there was a minimum amount of things I could take off.

I love how more people bitch about using search or make bullshit comments than actually respond with a worthwhile answer.

Don't get your Hanes in a bunch. It's not good for the circulation.
If you bought a brand new RB exhaust it is supplied with the instructions on what to remove and where to put the plate.

It's very simple. Remove the air pump and belt. Remove the ACV and use the block off plate. Remove the air tube off the back of the intake manifold. It does not need to be blocked off. Your done.

Thank you very much. My exhaust is being shipped right now so I didn't know if it came with directions on what to remove and block.
