84 305 to 350, carb/computer questions
Lots of good info here, but there is one combination missing, I'm in the process of doing a similar swap but starting with a carbureted 305 going to a mildly built carbureted 350. What computer changes will I run into, the same as doing the TBI swap? This is all being done on a 1984 HO Z28. Thanks for any info you guys can give me on this.

1clnz, I moved this to its own thread, as it was off-topic where you posted it.
Every 3rd gen delivered in the U.S. had a computer.
The good news is the carb computer isn't as fussy as some of the EFI computers. The only change you'll really have to make is the knock sensor and module need to be 350 parts.
