I have a 1984 Lincoln Town Car. It has CFI on it, and I have been considering swapping it to a carburetor. I am planning on using a Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, a Performer 500cfm carb, a mallory dual point distributor, and an Edelbrock Performer Plus cam shaft.
What I would like to know, can I use the stock in the tank fuel pump for this project with a fuel pressuer regulator? Or should I use a mechanical fuel pump? What about connecting the TV, and kick down rod for the AOD?
Anyother advice that I could get on this subject would be greatly appreciated.

Being you want to go to a carburetor, you will need a fuel regulator to reduce the fuel pressure to work with the carb. Take look at http://www.crownvic.net/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=499140 to see. The fuel regulator will need to be put inline before the carb.
Here's another example: http://forums.corral.net/forums/5-0-5-8-engine-tech/359786-need-1985-5-0-hp-specs.html
You may want to do more research on Thunderbird, Crown Victoria, and Mustang forums looking into this swap. Lots of luck to you on it.

I've noticed that there are two fuel lines going to the throttle body. Could one of them be a return line? |
