CFI or 4 barrel?
I swapped the old engine out and put a 350 crate engine in. Should I put the old CFI on the 350 or should get a 4 barrel carb instead?

Re: CFI or 4 barrel?
It would be cool to have the CFI on there. They are getting rare these days. I still have mine intact, and aside from a few minor issues, it has always ran good. I am thinking of building up a 383 for the TA and I am going to keep it CFI.

I need my ride to be fast since a lot of people around where I live are talking s*** about Camaros. I want to prove to them that Camaros can have way more muscle then their mouths.

Re: CFI or 4 barrel?
You'll have a thousand more options if you go the carb route. And ive also heard of many people having problems with the CFI setup. Don't get me wrong it can be made to work, but it'll be a lot easier with a carb, and parts for CFI are not that easy to find.

CFI limits a 305's performance. That only gets worse with a 350.

There are plenty of parts for CFIs. Just go to Autozone. They have part for em.
