    i am going to put a 350/350 in my 52 crestline vert, but am considering going with FI instead of the old carb, would this be to modern for shows or dont it matter

    my thought was a gm toilet bowl injection or maybe a holley carb thats FI (these are a little bit of $$$$) ----- any thoughts on this or has someone gone this route before and liked the performance

    A complete TBI 350/700R from an early '90s pickup makes a good installation as long as you aren't too concerned about ultimate performance. Decent torque, reliable, satisfactory mileage. Put a big air cleaner on top, wire it carefully (computer in the ****pit), and go with it.

    I did a 54 chevy and a 72 chevy p/u. Both worked out very well. Have TPI on my 5w. Would do it again. IMHO it's a goo set up.
