The only answer is DON'T hook it up like that!

Get either a different engine, or use all your old EFI stuff... Intake, exhaust, and sensors. You will have to tap out a hole on the driver's side of the block for the knock sensor.

There is no advantage to going carb... Less power, less mileage, and more adjustments to make.

I have to agree with this. Also, that 83 is a different block w/ a taller deck hight,, different timing chain, etc.

Understandable I will use the EFI so where is this hole I have to tap? And what emmisions can I remove?

Don't remove any emissions stuff... It does nothing but hurt you in the long run.

The hole will be somewhere on the passenger's side of the block. You should se it about 1/4 to 1/2 way up from the bottom, not in the original knock sensor location, though.
