Are you serious? Why go away from EFI?
Get it running right and it's better than carbs.
Their's a fair bit of work in swapping it out, all the extra lines/hoses need for the EFI plugging off or removing. You also need a new fuel pump,
dizzy, air cleaner, hoses, fuel line, power cables etc. Even the tin ware on the motor is different, but probably does not need replacing.
I'll give you a hand to do the change in swap for all the EFI gear

Keep the EFI. If it needs some repairs, repair it! It'll no doubt be cheaper and certainly very reliable.

Why???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
do NOT get rid of efi just because you have an issue right now ,learn about it and fix it its so much better than carbs,
Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.
