    Question Any truck guys here?

    I was wondering because i need some help. I have a 305 tbi and want to swap in a 350 however around here there are almost no tbi 350s because camaro and trans am guys have them all bought up. I have though stumbled across many 350's with carbs. Would i be able to swap my or another manifold froma tbi onto the 350 and run it. Anay input is welcome?

    Now i am not an expert, but intakes are all the same on small block chevy from the 283-400. But i don't know if a 305 throttle body would be sufficient for the 350, maybe if there is an upgrade for it to make it sufficient

    I am more of a Diesel and 250R guy right now so i am not the most knowlegeable about the small block chevys yet. But I am puting a 350 into a Datsun Pickup

    It should work just fine. You _might_ have to update the computer to get the most from your TBI, but other than that everything should work great.

    carb intakes are different then tbi.... the angle of the intake bolts are different

    80s......185 atc, Yamaha tri-moto 200, 85 200x with tons of work
    90s......89 Suzuki quad racer 250 (raced 250 A class for 6 years, late 90s.. custom framed 250x with long travel shocks and a built 350x motor.... built Honda 110
    00s...... chomeoly framed 350 RX with all the goodies (thanks to my bro)
    2012.....Replaced the 350x motor for a 444cc YZ426

    On my 67 327 I used the Edelbrock system. A little pricy but great performance and good gas milage.

    the tbi intake wont fit on a carb motor with out modification...so youre options are to modifie the intake...get rid of the electric fuel pump use a manuel fuel pump ....or you can use a fuel pressure regulator on the electric pump and that will make it work for the carb

    Custom200, Dave Porter in Paradise does this conversion all the time. Yes it works on a 350. Call him if you need any info, 781-4633. I was gonna swap a setup on my 78K5's 350 but instead bought a new Edelbrock 600. I hate computers and stupid electronic parts that give out and cost too much. But yes he does this all the time. Harness, intake, tbi setup, pump and tank, etc.... Good luck.
