card swap time..
i have a 1990 model irocz modds in sig . I was rolling around everything running great when a code poped up i found out is was a lose wire fixed it . on that im going to the far more familer carb set-up. i been needin more rpm the tpi doesnt cut it .heres what ill be slapping on just as a temp set-up till the big swap meet rolls around. performer intake with a 600cfm weber carb (always good cfm for a 350).i ran 12.9s before the swap any ideal what it will run with the extra air ?

"600 CFM Weber carb"? Not sure exactly what that is. But, it's a little small. 650-750 would be more like it, and a double pumper would be the hot ticket along with a Performer RPM instead of a standard Performer intake.
Can't say for sure about times. I don't recognize that cam. Was anything done to the heads, or were they bolted on out of the box?
What gears are you running? Anything done to improve traction?
I assume this means you've given up on the Stealth Ram.

Re: card swap time..
its a perfect size carb for a 350 (at least on my stuff).i ran my 350 in my truck (l48 300hp and 380ft.lbs stock)with a 750 changed to a 600 ran much more aggrsive . the intake and carb combo is a "temp" mainly cause it was free i would never buy such a run of the mill set-up. the heads are around $899 new the come with what u would expect 1.6 rockers 2.02 3 angle vaules blah blah blah.you can get the heads bare for cheap but i just wanted them ready to use.no other modds have been added the reason i think it would be faster is cause even a none rpm performer gets more air then a tpi and my cam makes power 3200-5800 so should be a bit faster.its not as much im giving up on the stealth ram as much im giving up on all fuel injetction.

Re: card swap time..
I think the carbs a little on the small side myself, but since you know its the perfect carb for any 350 out there I guess thats a moot point.. you will also need a non-cc dist.
