Ok, i know this has probably been discussed a million times, and i did try to search for it and couldnt find exactly what im looking for. Me and my friend are putting a mid 90s 350 tbi out of a full size conversion van in the place of the weak 86 smogged up 305 4bbl. I have a few questions as to what parts we need and was hoping that you guys could give me some good answers.
Question 1: This engine has provisions for a mechanical fuel pump. Can you run a mechanical fuel pump on a TBI engine or do we need an electric fuel pump and a block off plate?
Question 2: If an electric pump is needed, will we need a gas tank from a fuel injected 4.3L v6 monte carlo/gn or can we just run an inline pump and keep the stock tank?
Question 3: If we run an electric inline pump, that means we need a return line and a regulator, correct?
If theres anything im missing, will someone please chime in? We really want to do this swap right so please help .
