Well what do you think???
Im going to drop in a 35?...... But I dont know if I want to put a carb on it or put the tpi back on it.... I dont know if it will be easier to tell you what I want to run then you tell me what to do...
I will be spraying it..... Prob 150 shot..
I want to run 12.8- 13.2 Motor
Then w/e the 150 shot brings me to... What you guys think.... Any body dont this? Or just some opinions on this... --

I vote injection
A mild 350 should run that time once you upgrade from TPI

Ohios not that bad
Be realistic
TPI is the downfall
Carb is expensive
Have you priced decent carbs?
They are just as much as a high end EFI setup and they lack the benefits
If I were you, Id go with a used HSR or miniram
