92 305 TPI on a 85 350

Can i swap my 305 TPI setup onto a 85 350 without any fitment problems? The 350 currently has a carburator on it.

No.

The fitment problems will be:

1) Center two intake mount bolts on each side will be a different angle on the base than in the heads. It can be solved, but it is a "fitment problem".

2) The '92 will have a one-piece rear main seal and the '85 will be 2-piece. They use different flexplates (flywheel).

Non-fitment issues:

1. Knock sensor: Get a 350 sensor and module. The '85 may have the sensor, but most likely will not have the module.

2. Injectors & fuel pressure regulator: May need 22 lb injectors, and an adjustable FPR is a good idea, regardless.

3. PROM: Will need tuning for the displacement increase. Burn your own is probably the best idea.
