is your car tbi or tpi?

tbi swap to carb
tpi I'd debate more and look at your budget, if it allows it I'd retain the computer, swap out the tpi intake with an lt1 intake and remote thermostat, and do h/c 350

I'd only consider sticking to fuel injection at all if it was tpi, tbi is a waste imo

carb that shit!

Carb that shit! Computers are the devil. You can get a nice crate 350 motor for under $2000.
