Guys,

One more doubt. I want to know this time if 74 - 75 Camaros (2nd gen) have EGR and HEI? And what is these things, what they do in the car?

Thanks Marcelo

HEI is High Energy Ignition distributor.  EGR wasn't found on a Camaro until 1982.  EGR stands for Exhaust Gas Regulation.  You can also buy block off plates to remove it and gain m ore horsepower.

That may depend on where you live or where your car came from. Here in California it is from 73.

I'm waiting the reply from MSD.

You have a V8? If you do not have emissions where you live you can get a non egr. If you do you need to check your areas regulations. Any small block distributer will work. There were few exceptions for a small block chevy but you should not have one of them.

Well guys,
 
 i want to have one V8 350 in a 74 - 75 Camaro. I wrote to Edelbrock and the parts sellect are:
 
1 -  Intake manifold Performer RPM EPS idle - 5500: #2701
2 - Cylinder heads Performer RPM: #60899
3 - Camshaft kit: #2103
 
From MSD, i still waiting the reply. But when we talk about carburator i'll use a Holley 670cfm with a vacuum 2nd and manual choke. About this last iten what do you think about it?
 
Thanks MArcelo
