Re: 305 tbi stick to 350 tpi

There was a reason why GM didnt put the 350 in front of the T5, The T5 didnt have that strong of a input shaft. The ECM of the TPI will try to control the lockup in an auto and since theres no auto its gonna throw a code. A new prom can be burnt without the lock up in it. Someone can correct me if im wrong.
