Hi , i have a 1987 irocz , i am wanting to change from a 350 tpi to 350 carb. i have an 85 trans am that had a carb engine in it, i also have a 5 speed trans that came out of the t a, so i was woundering what to do with all the extra wireing , and what troubles i may run into, any help would be great.

 

already did that swap you dont need any of the computer wires ripe them out but when i did my swap i lost a **** tone of power

 

Keep the TPI

 

yea i only ran a 650 cfm and would die out at 4000 rpm

 

wat if u do some heads and cam on it and a 750 carb on it i dnt think ull have a problem on losing power than with that TPI correct? cuz im in the process of doing this too

 

The PO off my car swapped in a carborated 327 and I am in the process of removing wires. I have an auto though so I have to leave in till I figure out what to do with torque converter lockup

 

so if i keep the tpi ,will i have any trouble with the 5 speed if i decide to change the car over to manual. i was told that the 350 tpi's blow the 5 speed tranny's up. is that true.

 

A 350 can blow the trannys up with a tpi or carb. If your set on a T-5, rebuild it with all g force parts and baby it.
