Although I haven't bought anything yet I'm looking for more of a retro look engine wise with a good increase in power.
I thought your user name came from being Larry Smith or something . I just found that site the other day. I'm going to bookmark it. I'm glad it will help. TBI is a mid-modern thing these days, I guess. People don't get excited about them because they never came on anything with impressive power. In that era TPI was the bomb. I'm thinking Vortec heads, Export Van TBI manifold, and that guy's TBI dealeo on a 383 for a long term motor in the future
