305 TBI to ZZ4 with miniram, anyone done this?

I was originally wanting to swap from my 305 tbi to a ZZ4 with a carb. Now I'm thinking a miniram would be much better. But I have some questions....

Does the miniram come with it's own computer? If so is it easy to tune?

Also, will this system bolt directly on to a ZZ4 crate motor? And will it control my torque converter lockup, and such??

Thanks

No but that company has chips and packages depensing on your needs. www.tpis.com Since you don't have a TPI computer to put their chip in, you'll need to swap it our with your TBI computer.

no. We have don't have electronic controlled trannys like the 4thgens.

You can make great power with TBI if you want. Its food for thought before you go spending $1500 on a new intake system. A single plane carb intake to put under you TBI is $100. carb to tbi adapter is $50.
