Newbie need help with engine for 1987 3/4 pickup
i have a 1987 chevy 3/4 ton pickup with tbi. I am currently building a new engine for it, and i wanted to keep the tbi. Engine is 350 bored .30 putting edelbrock aluminum heads, cam is 230 duration at .050 and .480 lift intake and exhaust. Should be at 10 to 1 compression, i have full length headers and dual exhaust for it, want to get rid of as much of the emission stuff as i can, no testing where i live. bought a jet six pack chip for it. Is this setup going to work with the tbi or am i going to need to invest more money into the fuel system. Can i use a carbureted intake manifold with the tbi or would the stock manifold work? Any help would be appreciated

The stock TBI is going to limit you to 570 cfm, you can get an edlebrock 3704 intake and use a Holley TB for some more flow.
