My new C10

What's up guys. Well need less to say that the 85 SWB I bought on an impulse buy was a rust bucket, so I cut my losses and sold it. I came across this truck when I was driving around town. The guy was literally just putting on the for sale sign when I drove by. It was meant to be because this truck is so clean and priced just right. Its a 1981 SWB C10 power locks, manual windows, original bench and interior, has a 12 bolt diff, dropped 4.5 in the front. It has a super fresh 355 SBC with a small cam, long tubes, 4150 holley, edelbrock EPS intake, 2.5 xpipe and ebay flowmasters dumped after the cab mated to. A700r4 (that's gonna go). This is my question and I need advice. I just came across a LQ4 super cheap and I'm thinking of putting it in this truck with a carb style setup and a TH400 OR should I do a fuel injected setup with the TH400? Mind you this is not a daily, its going to be a weekend toy and go to shows.

Here's a pic of it outside. Let me know what y'all think.
