I did another TBI to carb swap this weekend

On a friends 89 305TBI. Basically stock, just headers and an open element. We replaced the intake with a Holley Street Dominator, used a 600cfm Holley VS, and I gave him my BG 3 port regulator.

He reports the difference is immediate, and very much for the better. We havn't even begun tuning it, this is right out of the box so to speak, and already he can't get over how much it helped. Personally I'm actually a little surprised it had as much gain as it did with the stock cam and all.

Score one more for the dark side
