carb and dist recomendations?

The previous post has alot of great information, however, my motor is an I6 300. What I am trying to find out is what carb and distributor do I need for pre-emmisions setup? I want also want to eliminate all smog emmisions and unnecessary vacuum lines. The only vacuum I want is to the brake booster, and vacuum advance, if that what the pre-emmisions setup calls for.

Thanks!!!

I would find a early 70's or 60's setup and use that. Either buy all re-manufactured from the parts store, or try to find one in the junkyard(going to have to be an OLD yard).

If you decide to get a new distributor, consider our custom curved Duraspark Distributor built with our new Full Length Oil Impregnated Bronze Bushing. The full length bushing improves timing stability and spark scatter. If stock appearance is not an issue, take a look at our one piece D.U.I. Distributor. Whether you choose the Duraspark or the D.U.I., we curve each on a distributor machine based on your engine combination. Please see them at:

Also, there is now an excellent installation article on the D.U.I. Distributor on the Ford-Trucks.com site at:
