DO not order the edelbrock kit. It is VERY limited.
Order the edelbrock intake by itself (your choice) and order the MSD 6010 Box. The MSD 6010 box comes with the harness, software and box itself to control everything. It plugs in to the factory coil packs, cam and crank sensor.
Carb I would use the proform 750. Uses holley jets and very easy to tune,
Jegs is pretty good on price.

Edelbrock/MSD Kit works ok, ive use before with good results. do not need laptop. pretty much just plug and play. not as limited as one would think. it does have its limtations. but will support most anything a street/strip car will need.
pure drag race or max effort perhaps not
and for carb i reccomend a Holley Street HP. 750.
the holley is way easier to tune out of the box,
the proform takes more input imo. at least imo, and ive gone thru a carb. or 2.

Funny thing is the kit cost more than buying it seperate.
Also, yeah the Holley HP series is #1 if you don't mind spending $600-800 on a carb.

yes, but designed to be plug and play. and works very well. for what it is. very beginner user friendly
the street HP line are considerably lower priced than the Pro Series line which your thinking of.
i own a Pro Series 750 HP that going on my new motor. with a Super Victor.
and that carb is pretty high priced but very easy to tune and comes with many desirable features out of the box.
the Street HP line start at 375$ for the 650 vaccum secondary unit. which imo is way better than a standard double pumper. comes with better features out of the box. the hi end version 750 mechanical secondaries is like 550$
what intake is the best?? If I want to do more with the engine later.. like came od heads... is the gm intake the best?? or not.. about automatic trans..on a old car like this.. is it th 700 or?? thanks guys..

Edlebrock or GMPP manifold is personal choice. You just missed a deal to get a GMPP manifold for $99. Aside from that check the ads. Sometimes used ones come up.
For ignition boxes get the MSD and NOT the Edlebrock. The edlebrock ignition box is made by MSD but doesn't allow you to program it with a laptop. That means you have a 5500 RPM readline whether you want it or not. They are both plug and play, very easy to set up.
Carbs you can get from ebay.
Once you have those three things all you need is a fuel system, air cleaner some linkage and you are in business. I don't know if you can get away with the FI fuel pump by just running a return style regulator. But even with a new fuel pump it is not that complicated or expensive.
im doing the exact same thing right now in my 69 camaro. poeple say carbed ls, why? they just dont understand. will have my motor out tomorrow and start putting new one in.
Conversions ls1 to carb.. need parts and info
