305 TBI to 355 Carb swap questions

I am swapping my 305 TBi on my 92 RS for a 355 that is getting bored .010 over. I stripped all the engine bay wiring except for the lights. Can I re-wire into my stock guages? Will I be able to use the electric fuel pump or will it be easier just to use the mechanical one?

Yes, your stock gauges should work fine with the new motor.
Easier to use the mech pump.

See my more explicit post on the exact same thread here;
