305 to 350 block swap, TBI or TPI? Also 305 question for fun.
Have 2 questions for you guys today, 1 serious and the other I just wanna see some funny awesome ideas!
First, I'm dropping a 350 motor in finally, I know I need bigger injectors and what not, but I was wondering if there was any advantages to adding the TPI top have to it? I'm buying a Summit 350 crate motor or something similar where the top half is up to me. The car and I are both moving out to Cali so keep that in mind if anyone knows about SMOG and emission laws they can give me a heads up on.
Secondly, what should I do with the old 305 block? Make it a coffee table? Clean it out and use it as a boat anchor? Lets here some cleaver idea's or suggestions!

@nkaiser81 I had to reset my password to come back in to say I appreciate you replying to a 12 year old thread.
Good news is I'm just going to do an electric motor swap once its reasonable to do so. The 350's lasted, but the rear main started to leak about 8 years back. I think the car was parked about 5 years ago and has been resting since.. sadly.
