ok guys i broke down and bought a 350 right now im not gonna do anything big really just maybe a 30 over bore,nice little cam,and set of heads.

yes i do now that a fuel pressure regulator is needed

problem is i need some ideas on how to run the plumbing.Pictures would be GREATLY appreciated.

Another thing im stuck on is the ignition system? What did you guys use in the department

All info is needed and appreciated deeply

Hye buddy im in the same boat and i need to know EVERYTHING that i need to go from a 305 to a 350 Carb .....so all the replies could be used for me too ill let you know some of my experices

its not that hard, rip out the old motor, and the computer and hte tpi harness, on the passenger side, clean and label the drivers side harness and clean up engine bay.

drop new motor in, intake, carb, water pump pulleys belts whatnot u know, plump the radiator, run a tranny cooler and hook up the tranny lines, headers, plug the brake booster line into the back of the carb, T connect it with a pcv valve get a fuel pressure regulator with a gauge and hook it up, mallory works best, set it to 6 psi

then get a MSd ignition, since you cant use your old dist.

get a 6al box and a dist, adn a coil, wire it all up and you have to sire up the fuel pump also, rip up the carpet behind the back seat, there will be 3 wires, i thik the tan wire should be a power wire, hook it to a switch and to a ign source, that should be nuff for now...

thats gonna lead me to the next question


will the fuel pump and regulator be enough to feed a 400 small block??

i dont see a reason why, get a guage to monitor the pressure and adjust it so its good, tehn see if yur lean or rich runnin...
