    Well I was going to go with mentioned 2.25 but with the above setup will it hurt not having an X pipe?

    Bad Combo?

    I was going to run cats just for fumes but if not needed maybe save that expense. What about a setup like this? Instead of trying to come back up over the trans cross member just run them under then back up after it. Also I thought about using a turn down out of the muffler. Ideas?

    Bad Combo?

    Okay just wanted to check. This is getting up there in terms of $$$. Just pricing a few things I'm close to the 1500 mark and that's not including a distributor and wires, fuel pressure regulator, thermostat,exhaust pipes, cats and mufflers, in line fuel filter for before the carb, and probably...

    But won't the timing be different for stock cam vs the comp cam 12-300-4? My older brother just got a second job at Oreillys so maybe he can hook me up with some tools and or parts. Oh I will wait to have the facts first. I'm still trying to get the motor out of the truck as it is. So...

    Bad Combo?

    You know that's what I was thinking of doing at first. Just to make sure I have the carb set up right and all that is worked out and make sure it fires up and runs without a problem. I am a shade tree mechanic and I know things to get me by but messing with the valve train is new to me. I...

    Where is the governor on a th350? If you're willing to part with it I would definitely take it off your hands.

    Bad Combo?

    While switching over to carb am I unplugging my ECM essentially? Not removing it of course just won't be hooked up to anything or controlling anything with the new HEI?

    Bad Combo?

    Agreed. But it included headers and a nice mellow muffler. Hahaha I'm going with DYI exhaust and clamping it together for now.

    Bad Combo?

    Thanks man. Not sure it was when I bought the truck that I called and asked. They asked if it was a 3/4 or 1/2 T and said they could on a 3/4 just not 1/2. Maybe because there isn't enough clearance on one of the sides for the exhaust to run? I called back again a couple of weeks ago asking and...

    Do they do a visual inspection for emissions stuff though? Diamond muffler seems okay but they told me I can't run true duals on my '87 halfton. I normally go to Brian and Brian at Summit South auto repair.

    In Kansas City Missouri I do not believe we have smog testing for inspections. The only place in Missouri that does smog is St. Louis and surrounding counties. Old77 correct me if I'm wrong. Fpr is fuel pressure regulator.

    Bad Combo?

    Any suggestions on fpr's? Or HEI distributors and or coils? When switching intakes should I delete the egr as well or find one with the provisions?

    Bad Combo?

    I've heard mixed reviews on that but more positive notes with just an inline regulator for the intake pumps. Maybe. I vaguely remember reading that they have a max psi output but I do not recall what it is. More than 15 bc you can put an adjustable regulator on the tbi and boost it up to no more...

    Thanks for all the input really it is appreciated. Most people on forums these days say we'll use the search button and research before asking "stupid repetitive" questions. That's why I am trying to gather as much as I can to do a write up on the carb switch since I can't find one anywhere...

    I have 255/70/15s or 255/75/15s I cannot remember. Bfgoodrich radial ta's Average speed is 45-65mph max in town is 45 but hwy is 65 and sometimes I used to go 70 but with the 3spd it sucked big time.

    You answered my question I was about to post. If the th350 would be okay with the intake and carb cam. Now which rear end 3.42 or 3.73 with the above combo? Also with the HEI what would be best? I heard it needs vacuum assist
  22. RangRayy

    Bad Combo?

    If I go carb then I would want my cam to be off idle to 4500rpm. But like I stated with a th350 trans behind it and my gears it would suffer on the low end. At least that's what Brian at TBI Chips told me... So I am going to fork over a lot of cash to get a trans and rear end swapped in.

    Bad Combo?

    I'm looking for a good 700r4. Funny that's how my Gpa burnt it up towing a 5th wheel camper from Missouri to Florida. A lot of hills to go through. A local shop said he could put the innards of a 700r4 into my existing th350 case. Thought that was a bit strange.

    Bad Combo?

    So with headers still or stock manifolds? I've already took the air pump off and plan on leaving it off so it's either headers or plug the holes. If I go headers do i still need the O2 sensor(s)? Or can that be deleted as well if I switch it over to a carb' system?
