Default 89 camaro 305tbi to 350 carb swap

has anyone done a 305tbi to 350 carb engine swap? just wondering what to do with the fuel pump. should i keep the current electric pump and install a fuel pressure regulator, or use a mechanical pump on the engine with no electric pump?

other than that and the HEI distributor to install, is there anything else to change?

I would think a mechanical fuel pump would be best. I've been told that a few times. Because the pressure from the electric pump is to high, but if you put a regulator on there that maybe fine. I don't know what else. I'll be trying a 350TBI to carb swap in a year or so.
