Default Need good advice on sbc 350 tbi build.

i have a 91 c1500 sbc 350 tbi with the 700r auto trans. so far i have fabd a custom cold air, removed clutch fan, installed tb spacer. i am now installing custom headers, edelbrock 3704 tbi intake, MSD distributor/blaster coil/ignition + rev box, bigger injectors/bores, ported/polished intake and heads, and a shot of the spray between 75/100 shot. i dont really want to get into the lower end just yet but i am, was wandering what would be a good torquey cam and was wanting to know about a good stall for this setup. also would i need to have my ecu programed to accept all this. i allready have my rear locked and geared 4.10. i have some wheel hop but i am fabbing a link to solve that issue. i'm not trying to be the fastest dog on the strip but want something to put down on some of these cats around my area. and i'm also trying to keep the fuel injection. any info or suggestions are welcome.

the tbi has limitations. i'd convert to multi-port, ls swap, or something. you can use a holley pro-jection system with bigger cam, headers, tune edelbrock makes couple good systems. GM's TPI, the Vortec, are also good options.

Holley makes a tb that is equal too 670cfm. that should be sufficient enough for the mild build i am doing. or am i wrong?

My tuner, Kyle, at Carolina Speed Shop does custom tunes on just about anything. He's located in Conway, South Carolina. It's probably a 6 to 10 hour drive from where you are.
