TPI TO CARBURETOR SWAP QUESTIONS?
Anyone swapped a carburetor into a TPI engine???
I swapped a new mini-ram intake with a fresh 350 and I can't seem to get it tuned right or a properly tuned chip thru TPIS. I ripped out all my emission components and A/C.
If I bypass my ECM with a carburetor, will I need a different transmission (Turbo 350 maybe)???
Will my stock digital dash and guages not work? Will I need all mechanical guages and new dash?
Any other electrical/computer issues with a carburetor set up??? Thanks
