302 in 1990 carb or FI

I doubt that in most places you'd even be allowed to register or have emissions done on it with a carb, since OE was EFI.

You are correct. However, I'm not sure where the poster was from either, but there are a few states where they don't have emission testing or yearly safety inspections. (Kansas, for example, where I live) For the record, I'm not in favor of yanking off any emission equipment either. If the truck came out with EFI, keep it EFI.

I used to live in MO where there was no emissions, just a safety inspection. Now I live in CO where it's the opposite.

Carb is easier to setup, but the advantages of EFI far outstrip the PITA factor of installation. Which is way easier on a car meant for EFI anyways, unlike trying to convert my '69 over to EFI.

WARNING: Federal law makes it illegal for ANYONE to tamper with, disconnect, remove or otherwise render inoperative ANY emissions-related control device. The Environmental Protection Agency and most states have actually been rather lax about enforcing this rule on motorists, but they haven't hesitated to nail professional service facilities that have been guilty of tampering. Even so, the fines can be hefty. A violation may make you liable for up to a $2,500 fine!
