okay, so say I were interested in converting my 87 rx7 over to carburetion. What is involved in the process? Obviously, pulling the EFI system off and its wiring systems, keeping only the minimums for the gauges to work, ignition to work, fuel pump to prime and work, etc. What is involved?

The obvious things I can think of are:
fuel regulator to run pressure down to a lower level
carb manifold & carb
distributor ignition setp
some type of throttle linkage
......

what else? Have I even gotten close?

I've done a little bit of looking and havent found a "to-do" list on parts and methods of the conversion. Just something Im looking into.

Car is an 87 RX7 n/a with all smog equipment removed, 5 & 6 ports removed, RB header w/o cat, etc etc, running stock EFI system.
