91 Camaro 305 to Crate 350 ?

I have a 91 Camaro 305 TBI AUTO. I want to put a 350 in it. Is there any way to drop 350 into it without ditching the ecu and wiring? What would be the cheapest and most efficent way to do this ? Thanks guys

If you are going to keep the TBI, there should be no problems.

I'd like to do a Edelbrock 650 Carb with performer intake manifold. Would this work with the computer ? Would my stock tranny be ok? I was planning on putting a shift kit and corvette servo in the tranny. Any suggestions?

Interesting. I'm going to be doing the same swap in about 2 weeks. I've been told I can keep the same ecm and also the same intake. Is this true? I would probably need to upgrade the fuel injectors right? Anything else?

Fuel injectors, knock sensor and you would need a custom chip to really run it right. Although the stock chip should start and run the thing it wouldn't be optimal.

Everything else is the same. You do not have to change the computer.
