I am new to this forum so if I make mistakes please forgive me.

What is the latest model year Suburban without any electronics in it except for the radio? I am of the old school and want one with a carburetor, plugs, and points. No electronic controlled fuel injection. A manual controlled heater and A/C is just fine. Electric windows are ok if just simple switches without any circuit boards, transistors, diodes, etc. Otherwise manual crank is ok. In other words, a Suburban without any circuit boards, etc. I understand that the alternator may have diodes etc and that is ok for that one item. What year did they start putting all that air pollution stuff on the carburetor engines?

I am looking for a 4x4 like that with air conditioning.

I have a 2000 Suburban LT 1500 4x4 that I love and have no clue what is going on with all those things under the hood. Gimme that ol' time religion!

I have had and worked on many race cars back in the day and want to find a Suburban 4x4 that thinks the way I do.

you will have to find one that is 1987 or older if you want a carburetor. If you want points change the distributor but there is nothing wrong with a HEI distributor, must be millions of them in use.
 
Thank you for the reply. I had a 1985 Ford F150 that had fuel injection with an ECM. So I am guessing I will need something before 85/87 in a Suburban.
