upon researching via several forums- seems the TBI is somewhat limited on HP capability, so maybe the 383 idea won't work so well without substantial tbi mods. ideas on that? i suppose i could always find a vortec motor- or buy a crate vortec motor, and put the vortec/tbi manifold on there, get a few tbi mods from CFM, and get a chip burned (from where i don't know).
ahh, the choices are endless- could rebuild my 350/add vortec heads/torque-y cam/prob require a chip too i suppose.......
