Hi guys I need a little help on this. I own a 1988 GMC 1500 Sierra Classic suburban with a 350tbi 700-R4 transmission 2wd. I am having problems with the distributor throttle body coil something I don't know but it's causing me tons of stress and I'm broke so I just can't throw parts at it and hope it works. I want to keep the tbi but the way it's going it seems I can't. I have another thread in the engines and performance section labeled Tbi backfire. Had a couple great guys help me but just seems I'm not doing something right and old school carbs are my thing not this computerized stuff. I'd like to know how hard it is to do the conversion from tbi to a carburetor. I have an intake I got at a junkyard, lucked out it's one of them professional products intakes designed for the center bolt valve cover heads for $25. I know I need carburetor and distributor but what else and how hard will it be to do it all?
