Tractor Build Update, and Small Block Chevy Question

Goodevening guys!!

So, the truck-tor build is progressing well... We've already pulled and scrapped the body, and tonight myself and a buddy of mine removed the engine/transmission, and decided what to plasma cut off first thing tomorrow (front end components, etc), at which point the frame itself, the suspension, and the remains of the cab will be ready to junk out... will be ready to haul off as well. We've formed a huge pile of good parts, to keep. Things seem to be going great!!

Anyway, to my question...

We've pulled the computer and related wiring from the dashboard, and lets face it, wiring all that back up is going to be a bad time...

How hard would it be to convert this thing back to a carbed engine?

Best we can figure, we'll need a different intake manifold, and of course the carb itself... We'll have to do all new linkages and re-wire everything, anyway, so why not?

Ideally Id even like to have a gravity-fed fuel system...

Has anyone ever gone from fuel injection to a carb setup? The engine itself is a 1993 305 v8, that needs a head gasket...

Any thoughts on this?

Anyway, thanks in advance guys... I'm pretty tired, so I hope this post came out alright... Enjoy part one of the build series, guys :)
