oil pump queston and Engine ?

ok i bought the racing beat Carb manifold and a 600 holley , I got a 87' t2 , i know i know WHY is it carbureted!?!?! Well Because fuel injection Is expensive an my t2 already had Crazy wiring like spagetti , so in the meantime ill run carb , ANYWAYS the Problem is i have an electric Oil pump , I elimanated the wiring harness etc . I have a spare13b with a manual Oil pump Now WERE would i Incorporate the linkage from the manual oil pump to the Carburetor linkage , OR is it still possible to use the Electric ?????? DO i have to make something to Link them or is there something like a kit i could buy , ALso since i have a 13b an converted to carb , i have to Plug some holes like the 2 coolant holes above the middle intake ports , AND also the Injector holes. WHAT can i use to Plug them or is there a kit so ive heard?? id Post this in the 1st gen section but majority of the 1st gen guys deal with 12a's an don have the injector holes ............... Help?!
thanks

It's for people who don't want to deal with, don't want to pay to fix it properly, or are more comfortable with carbs.

The easy way is to get a Zenki NA throttle body and front cover.  That'll make everything bolt right in.  You could rig something up, but it's reliability will depend how good of a fabricator you are.
