throttle body
I have a motor and tranny out of a 91 chevy 1ton. it is fuel injected(I have the computer and wiring) and a 480le? transmission. should I keep the fuel injection or go with a carb set up? what about the tranny? use it or go with a 700r4?

Re: throttle body
if you're "comfortable" working with all the trons, then yeah, go for it!
Im NOT comfortable with all the electronic gee wiz stuff, so I'd just keep the ol stocker in there... but if you can get the fuel inj all workin right, it's a great option. |

Re: throttle body
Since you have most everything, and if you feel comfortable with dealing with the electronics, I say go with the TBI 350/4L80E. I guess it would come down to what your skills are. The TBI conversions are relatively simple IMO.

Re: throttle body
TBI= better fuel mileage and starts up every cold morning. Id go for TBI if you already have it all.
