best mod to start with on any TBI 305 or 350 is to start in the fuel tank and work your way up ... order a 96 vortec 350 fuel pump , Ac Delco brand ( Reason is the fuel pressure falls Immensely off of idle and is barely enough to keep a Stock engine happy , which with mods it will instantly become to lean to keep it from running right or noticing any difference in Acceleration over the pinging ...... comes with screen and is direct fit + Quality OEM ... then go to the Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator and rebuild the TBI , clean it good ... Don't Upgrade the Injectors unless you do a Rebuild and a Cam/heads ... you won't be able to burn all of that fuel and it'll kill the engine instantly , plus it helps to get the Computer Flashed to handle the mods ... doesn't cost much and theres a limit to the Cam you can go / compression etc... thats under 1500 to do all of that listed ... sticking to the stock stroke is best for a stock TBI-Computer ran engine unless you want to go aftermarket... stock heads suck and not worth the time/effort/money on porting/working them over...

I have done this 3 times. All 3 times I also put in new fuel pressure regulator springs and injector screens. Also installed the screw style adjustable pressure regulators. Could not tell what I did different from one to the other. But the first and third I could tell no difference in performance. The second time holy crap it made a big difference and sold it with the truck it was on. The second one is why I made the third. The guy that bought the truck with it on paid me to build him one for a friends truck but like I said it did not seem to make a difference. There was just some sort of unknown magic I did to the second one even when you transferred it from truck to truck it worked. I had a couple people ask me to do it again but I told them I do not know why the second one was so good and could not guarantee results so they did not have me do it.

I raised mine 1 inch and the actual TBs about 1/4 inch. It was a kit. What also helped was an aftermarket air cleaner, open 360. I had to buy the one that hangs lower on the engine ( forgot the name) because now the hood hit the stock air cleaner! Also adjusted the idle up just a little. It is only a V-6 but it now "goes fast" on the ramps and likes doing 85. I did not cut off that lip.

I ordered a flat base 14” open element set up with a dominator size bore, to set on top of my salad bowl. I like a bit of induction sound. I agree, keep it simple.

Also guarantees your air flow to be dead even...

I'm not convinced this is going to do anything without a cam and intake. Everyone says TBI heads are the worst thing on the planet. But After all of my modifications I can stay side by side with my dad's 85 vet until about 70. That's when I have to switch from third to Fourth. We haven't got to race since I put in a Dana 80 but I can tell you that b**** is heavy and slow the truck down a lot. The Chevy 8.5 is just junk. I started off twisting the axle shafts. Then stacked the 454 clutch I was running and had to go to a heavy duty six puck. Then I twisted the drive shaft like a toothpick. Now I'm running a f450 rear end with its drive shaft. I'm about to do the solid axle swap on it. With airbags up front. My engine is far from factory. Fully balanced and blueprinted 388. She's due for a rebuild so it'll be a 392 and I'm going to shorten up the cam LSA a little bit and go from a 114 to a 112. And you cannot push those heads past .56 lift without modification. I broke every damn valve spring in that b****. But when I was still running the throttle body she would pull past 6500 no problem. And my Cam's not even that radical it's 218 224. I can tell you drivability is hurt. But I would rather have the power if you just stomp on the throttle she'll fall flat on her face and backfire. You have to roll into it. Doesn't matter if I'm running TBI or carburetor. I'm about to put my TBI back on due to 93 octane being a million dollars and with the throttle body I can run e85 no problem the carburetor doesn't seem to like it.

This idiot put the stock air cleaner back on it which is 75% of the restriction causing the problem. So whats his cure? Reducing the velocity of the intake charge by cutting of the flanges designed to bring the speed of the air to a specific speed for fuel atomization, but did the exact apposite making the problem worse.

It does amazing on the highway, but around town it’s terrible and idle surges. I’ve replaced every damn sensor, flow tested injectors, coil, distributor, plug 🔌 ends , etc. will that 454 throttle body set up fix my problem? Now I did port an polish the heads. That really did increase the cfm. I didn’t measure that , but I opened up the air and exhaust galleys a lot more than stock for sure.

The earlier 88-90 454 TBI’s would fit if you bored the holes in your manifold out to fit the larger bore 454 TBI. Stock Small block TBI’s have 42mm bores. 454 TBI’s are 50mm. I went with a Roy V Morse Machine modified 5.7L TBI bored out to 46mm complete with all the mods from this video. It will work with the stock TBI manifold, although I intend to have my new manifold bored to match. I understand that 454 TBI’s have poor idle issues when used on a 5.7L due to having much larger idle air passages. CFM Technologies also offers the bored and milled 46mm TBI’s. Both shops are highly regarded. I hope this answers your question.

the air cleaner flip only introduces more hot air into the engine and more noise. Keep the closed air filter housing and tubing. Removing the restrictor from the resonator where it pulls air from the inside the fender allows more air and keeps cooler air coming in. . Next best thing would be a cowl hood with a enclosed air box to get cooler air into the engine.

I don't know what part of the country yawl live but here in the Denver, Colorado we have this thing called a Emission test . If your OBS Chevy doesn't have the emission equipment or the same engine or any other foolcanery smog stuff it came with from the year it was built it will fail emissions and you will not be able to register the vehicle. So with that being said, save your nickel's and drop in a HP Gm crate motor $$$$,, and turnkey and enjoy!..

I have a 92 chevy 1500 single cab, long bed with a crate 350 bored 40 over. The motor runs strong but my transmission and rear end is over worked, I assume. I'm no mechanic, my uncle did the work before selling me the truck for $500.00. What's my next step?

Why did you left those sharp edges to the butterflies? It's good that you ground down the high spots, but air needs to curve in to the engine, not break a 90 degree. It needs to look like end of musical instrument. Trumpet, tuba, trombone, various horns, etc, expanding gradually and smoothly

I am guessing you have not heard of Bernoulli's theorem ? Given how many restrictions GM designed into those engines I see why this looks like a restriction to air going in. But is it really? Looks to me GM was trying to funnel the incoming air into the TBI with more velocity less pressure, speeding up the air would be the best idea. Has anyone ever dyno this difference? I would almost want to extend those restrictions upward a half to 3/4 of an inch to help ever heard of Bernoulli's theorem create more speed less pressure air going into the TBI. The whole air cleaner on a 350 Chevy looks like that's what they were going for in a lame sorta GM way really.

What causes a jerking,surg, hesitation at low speed ?(35mph to 45-50mpg) I thought it was the transmission but transmission shop said it was good. It's like the engine isn't advancing and trans not holding a down shift. I just can't find the cause. I've replaced to much to list and not enough to have found the problem. Any suggestions?

You seriously need to invest in a die grinder with a double cut carbide but, that'd get the job done like pronto, including grinding the venturi shafts down a little that'll let more flow through the TBI. You also need to ditch the stock breather and get at least a 14x3 inch open breather setup, a 14x4 inch would be better if you have the clearance. Also, a 2 inch soup bowl spacer between the TBI unit and breather would help in atomizing, along with the TBI spacer between the TBI and intake manifold.
