Re: Should i convert my TBI to Carb?

I planning on doing it in the future. Reasoning for me. I've tuned carbs on many old trucks and cars with good success. I have no idea how to tune with the ebl or anything even after researching and reading. I can get an intake and a carb and probably get an hei ignition from a junkyard for less than the ebl and everything cost. From that point i can work my heads, add a cam and for me atleast it will be easier to tune. Plus it'd all transfer over to a 350. So if you feel the same, i'd say go for it but i haven't actually done it yet so i cant say how work or if its better. Plus i wana get a weiand 142 blower eventually so the tbi would definetly go if that ever happened.
