engine swap with carb?

I am thinking of swapping my 2.8 out of an 89' and put in a new 350 and a new 350 turbo tranny. Would it be easier to use a carb. instead of swap injection system. What needs changed to add the carb? How will computer be affected? I'm not concerned about emmissions. Also how much horsepower will the stock rear
be able to handle. I'm not planning on beating the car or racing it but I know it will happen.

Use a carb. The FI systems on these cars aren't worth the headaches that trying to get them working creates.
