will a tbi intake work well with a 305 tpi block/heads??? this is going together temporarly until i get something better..

edit:says l98 up top. its not, its a 305...

 

There, now it says LB9. . .

Yes, it will work just fine. Not a bad move, actually, as long as you're sticking with a 305 anyway.

 

thanks! i spun a bearing in my old lo3, so i pulled it out, now im without my vert, but yesterday a really helpful guy gave me an lb9 block/heads/internals. I'd rather not have to go through the tuning and all of putting in a tune port for it. So i figured ill keep the tbi and just drill the holes to convert it over since its an 86 block.

 

Be warned though, on the stock chip it will probably run like crap. Bump the initial timing to 6*(non-swirl heads) to try to compensate for it. You might need an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and bump the pressure up a 1/4 psi at a time until it runs the best.

The sweet spot on my LE9 (TRUCK version of the L69) converted to TBI was right at 14 psi and 6* of timing.
