If your car didn't come with a speed sensor, then you will need that.

Re: 305 carb to tpi

If you go to my webpage ( see my signature) I have a page on my TPI swap. This is where I have downloaded lots of files and info. There is a spreadsheet with all of the parts I used, with cost, etc. Lots of other useful links there as well, including all my links to other websites.

You ECM with the MAF should be able to accommodate the cam with no issues.

For sensors, you will also need the TPS and IAC in the throttle body- may have been included with what you bought.
