TPI swap

Hey guys I have a 92 Camaro with a 305 TBI, im swapping in the base GM 350 engine (I know its shitty but I bought it knowing it will be a money pit) and I want to do a TPI swap. What parts do I need, and what modifications do I need to do, or is there a kit to buy? thanks, and I'm sorry if there is already a thread but I could not find it. thanks alot

You need a TPI intake complete <$250 and a '730 ECM ( computer) >$75

Time to hit CL , the junkyard or look at the 3rd Gen for sale.

Re: TPI swap

i just did the same swap.

wire harness & ecm from a Speed Density car

dual fans

find connector 207 behind the p/s glove box area and the VSS buffer box in the same area. Take the tan and brown wire going into the buffer box and connect them. throw the buffer box out. then at the connector 207 there is 1 wire that needs to be moved. i think its the brown wire on the black side of the connector to the grey wire at the clear side...

thats pretty much it

otherwise plug n play
