Default Has anyone switched a V6 from efi to carb?

Engine is 3301cc V6 from a 1998 Grand Voyager/Caravan UK spec.
Has anyone removed all the electronics & fuel injection systems.
Then fitted distributor & Carb setup.
This is for a few reasons.
1, Curiosity 2, Microchip & sensor manufacturers supply chain & costs down the line. 3, [for the prepers as live near Nuclear power station & airports] EMP going off
Would love to see pictures and info.

No I haven't. But what type of motor would you replace the motor with?

No replacing the motor but the intake manifold, coilpack, ECU & sensors off. Then replace with compatible Dizzy, Carb etc
Please remember I'm in the UK, so parts availability is drastically different.
Engine is EGA 3301cc V6 from a 1998 Grand Voyager/Caravan UK spec. BUT it's no-longer in a Grand Voyager/Caravan but a 1997 mk1 Neon.
No SKIMM on the car but was on the doner Export spec Grand Voyager/Caravan.

Plus thought as the EGA V6 engine was in a lot of vehicles over there someone might have used in hotrods or custom conversion

Maybe check online to see if there are any conversion kits, The only V6 motor that uses a distributor is a 3.0Liter. The 3.3 and 3.8Liters do not. Same thing with the Neon, Doesn't use a distributor. That is in the USA version. I don't know about the UK.
