tbi on crate motor.
If i were to swap a crate 355 into my RS would i be able to use the tbi system and just upgrade to the 350 stuff and tune it?

Re: tbi on crate motor.
Make sure you take care of the fuel delivery, this part is important. No 255lph pump required unless running 30+ psi of fuel pressure. A TPI pump or 190 lph pump is plenty of fuel. Tuning is also a must.

Re: tbi on crate motor.
yes, as long as you hook all the sensors back up and up the fuel parts like RBob said, you can use the same computer and tune according to the new parts.
if you can find a tbi unit off a 454 setup, you'll get the bigger injectors and bigger butterflies; may be worth looking around for
