5.7L TPI on a '78 350 block/heads
« on: February 19, 2010, 11:38:59 pm »
OK guys... I searched for this but didn't really find anything.

I am looking for a TPI unit for my 350. My question is what year should I go with for the TPI itself (plenum, runners, etc..), ecm, and harness, etc...??? I've heard to use an '85 TPI with a '90-'92 corvette harness and ecm (speed density) setup... But is this correct? Any help would be great!

Thanks,

KC
