360 tbi?

HI all qwik ? I have heard that a dare I say it , Chevy 350 tbi can be used for tbi setting on a 352 since the 352 and 350 are close in CID, will it work for a 360? And for those that read my other posts My dads friend chose not to take the '65 flatbed so we now have a 65 and 66 to work on.Dad also managed to get a GMC s15 ext cab out of the deal so now i need to fix up 3.

A TBI system can be used on any motor, if you wish to take that route. As far as the GM system, I doubt it, not a swap over item as the TBI, at least for the early systems, did not have the regular 4-bolt type mounting to the manifolds.

Won't work. The FE will recognize the Chebby part and throw it through the radiator.

All BrandX EFI's are resistence based, harness type, wires size and constant voltage supply, sensitive Cr*p. Central Fuel Injection, or what you are calling Throttle Body is little more than a overly complicated carburetor without a needle & seat, float bowl, or jets, which does not work well, & often works worse than a carb.

The deal with EFI is tuned port injection, Mass air flow, something more advanced than Speed Density Logic in the O/S and it should improve, not detratct or degenrate performance and efficiencies of what ever it's put on.

I dislike carburetors but as much as I like EFI, I'd run a carburetor forever before I'd put a Central Fuel Injection (no gain) system on anything. Why complicate your life with documentable & certified junk?

Just my opinion on the matter.
