350ho swap for TBI
i appologise if this isnt in the motor swap section, it seems that everyone wants a cheap ls1 install these days.
later on down the line i plan on getting a 350 crate and since im not shooting for 850hp i figure i can get by with the 350HO GMPP engine12486041, i also want to keep the TBI system (dont ask why).
now i know im gonna need custom tuning, a new fuel pump and the gm tbi vortec intake manifold, but what can i actually reuse from my 305 besides the accessories? would it be safe to reuse the harmonic balancer and the flywheel since its not going to see much track use? or is it just cheap insurance to get these things new? and is there anything else im forgetting,
let the hating begin...

No hating here. I just wanted to say welcome to the forum. You are amongst friends. I wouldn't even presume to ask "why TBI" cuz I know why.
Watching your posts from here should be fun.
