Tbi
Alright, seeing as how the body repair is coming along nicely, i have to start thinking about the technical side of the park, so, this is the question i throw out. What can i remove from a 350 TBI engine, that is still running all of it's stock hardware i.e air compressor, emissions stuff etc. What i need to know is what i can safely remove without harming power, drivability, any takers on this one??

If you keep the tbi the smog pump, charcoal can., and AC can come off w/o any problems or adverse effects (other then emmisions or personal comfort).

If you do not have emmions in your area I would remove the AIR, smog pump, heater valve, and the AC. You will have a nice looking engine bay without a lot of clutter this way.
