The transmission won't need to be rebuilt if it is in good shape now.

The TBI forum has the best information about putting a 350 under a 305 TBI.

The tech articles linked from the thirdgen.org homepage has all the info about switching from EFI to carb. I wouldn't use an Edelbrock carb, personally, but to each his own.

This is coming from a guy that uses Amsoil in his cereal instead of milk...
