recently new 86z owner
I just bought my 86 Z-28, thanks to a little lack of know how and a couple crossed plug wires i bought it dirt cheap and now it runs great. i don't have pics (maybe someday). I also know where a 87 pontiac t/a is (305 f/i, auto) it needs some work but it is all thereand the body is in real good shape.

Engine: 5.0L TBI / 5.0L TBI
Transmission: Auto / Auto
Axle/Gears: stock
Engine swaps
Hey all, I am in the Florissant area. I just got a 89 Formula and after getting it running the motor is apparently shot. Has anyone in the area replaced a 305 with a 350 TBI? I would really like some tech support on this, I don't need you to work on my car, I can to grunt work. I'm just new to EFI and don't want to go the easy route and trash the computer.
Thanks
Thanks
