a 2800 stall and some dremel time with the tpi would make a huge difference. Shouldnt have any trouble pulling mid 13's

love the E.F.I.I do want to move up to a mini ram eventually though.Plus i already had this intake and it would bolt right on to my 350 upgrade off my 305 for free.

The tpi is faster than the carberated version, why would he want to switch?

tpi is a restriction on stock 350 cars. Its cheaper to swap to a carb and make more power then to upgrade tpi.

Whats the difference? TPI's great for stump pulling torque and throttle response, but it isnt exactly a screamer...
