Engine setup
I'm getting ready to build my first 350 TPI setup. Its going to be my everyday driver so i wanted to ask someone with more knowledge then me on this, which is nearly everyone on this board, for their input.
Heres my setup:
SLP 1 3/4" headers
Edelbrock TPI High Flo TPI Base
AS&M Siamesed runners
Ported Plenum
3" exhaust system
Do you think i should use the Trick Flow 23 degree heads or the Gm Performance parts Fast Burn Heads? Also which cam do you think will work better, LPE 214/244 or LPE 211/219? and will i need to adjust my cars computer to work with these cams? if so what cams will work well without having to adjust my cars computer? Thanks for your time and input

I'm not an expert on these motors...but my personal opinion is the Trick Flow heads would work better. They've got larger intake and exhaust valves and larger chambers, even though the GMPP's have larger runner volumes.... Trick Flow makes some great parts.
As far as the cam...the second one has quite a lot of lift; I'm not sure how the computer would like that. They're both Lingenfelter cams I see....so how about giving Lingenfelter a call and ask them? They should know best.
