Switching from carb to F.I.

What would be involved for switching from a carb to a throtle body set up? Would that be a good thing to do for my daily driver? It's a 350 Chevy. Not interested so much in power of it, just want good reliabiltiy. Thanks.

Holley makes a complete TBI set-up conversion from carb. It is kinda pricey but it takes all of the geuss work out of it and gives you everything you need. You are looking at $2000 for the kit I believe. You could always find a 350 TBI out of a truck and pull everything off that. You need computer, fuel pump, harness, TBI unit, adapter plate, sensors and a few other things.
