383 swap and factory computer and fuel.


Recommended Posts

Hey guys! Super rare that I post in here but now is a moment where Im pretty stumped.

 

Im debating ripping the old and tired 350 out of my 88 and replace with a built 383 thats going for a good price. the 383 has a 750cfm carb and runs 10.1:1 compression. I know that the motor should mount up to my trans (700r4) just fine, but may need a better stall. The only thing Im not sure on is the factory computer. how do I go about this? Going from TBI to carb makes me question if the factory computer can even be used. And if it can't, Is the trans ran off of that computer? Will my gauge cluster still work? Do I need to get an MSD ignition system and a tuner to set it up?

 

Another thing Im not entirely sure of is fuel system. I know fuel pressure is different as well as being returnless. How do I manage to go about this? Suggestions and tips would be appreciated.

 

 

 

Sorry if I seem absolutely clueless here but its because I am haha. Im familiar with the idea and concept of engine swaps, but not to the point when factory computers and different fuel delivery is thrown into the mix.
