Does it run? Looks like someone tried a swap and gave up on it? Hopefully the tbi distributor has been swapped out

What would you swap it out for? I'm running stock on my 89' TBI, Have you had success upgrading?

Scoots, the OP has a TBI engine that has been changed over to a carb that apparently won't run. The TBI distributor is computer ran and wont work with a carberator. If your engine is TBI and hasn't been swapped you want to keep the distributer you have
