Default RAM 1996 with injection system XXXXXX?

I am Hector from Argentina, if on the other side of the continent, here are few of these, many of the new, but mine is not; Because the vin says 1996 but the injection system is old, it has a nozzle holder in the Holley air system of two elements. Besides now the ecu has "disappeared", I would like to know: do I adapt another injection system, or a carburetor? Excuse the language but use the translator my english is very bad. Thank you very much.-

A 96 with throttle body injection? I think someone has already done some serious shuffling on your truck. If finding parts is an issue, take the path of least resistance, and go with what you can find. If that means a carb, go for it.

Good Luck, and Welcome to DF!

possibly, one built to "export" specs might not have everything the same as one built to US specs.

That looks like the old throttle body injection that was used on the late 80's early 90's trucks.
