Swapping in 350 and using original Qjet?

My 305 just irritated me so much by being weak I want to get a 350. Not super high performance just lookin at the 240hp engines, I would like to use the original ccQjet so I wont have to make up a TC switch or buy the $150 painless kit for just that. Is it possible to run it like that? Wont throw a code on the comp or not run right? Need help asap, Thanks

You don't need a 350 to make 240 HP. See sig for a 300-range setup.

But, the CC carb will do fine with a 350. You'll probably need to do a little tuning on the secondaries (rods, hanger), but even a 305 benefits from that.
