Its seams you will have some learning ahead of you. These engines go as well as any other 70's engine, but the basic rules still apply.

If you ordered a "18R-G", that generaly implys a 18R-G engine with sidedraft carbies as standard. The fact the particular engine started life as a "18R-GEU" EFI engine is neither here or there. The engine is still exactly the same for the most part.

Solex Mikuni carbs are the standard issue for 18R-G and 2T-G engines, and are a godd thing. Let me know before you throw any stuff away!!! I like to collect sidedrafts for spares.

You can use a breather hose from the cam cover to your air filter box if you want. Just vents back into the intake.

Brake booster hose goes to manifold vacuum, which will be a connection of the No. 4 intake manifold runner, or just any intake manifold hole, no difference where. Block all unused holes up, don't want a vacuum leak.

You should be able to fit a mechanical fuel pump still, just get one from a old 18R-C engine. Otherwise make sure the electric pump is for carbs, not EFI.
