Why not keep the TBI and get some aftermarket help, like a Holley 670cfm T/B, Holley TBI intake, 1" T/B spacer, injector spacer, custom Prom and keep it looking stock...can you say "Sleeper!"...:bow: :bow:

Hell Yes.
why do you think i TBIed my 406.
it look's like a shiney 225hp 350TBI.........
But only me and my friend's know it a 540hp 406.........
it's more fun that way.........
Every one is going to ask me you an L-98 on that LoL.......

no TBI for me cause the LG4 is temp, ewhen i blow it up ina few years im going LT1/LS1/big block so no need in puttin in a buncha money in a TBI 305

no no not a TBI305 A TBI406:D.
I meant Ivesting money to have a 225HP 305 no not worth it.
But to invest money in a 540hp 406 it wouls be you'll have all of $3,500 in it . and you'll have Torque that won't end.........
with some nice 3.73 or 4.11 gear's you'll Fly..........
It will Take one heck of an LS-1 to keep up with it.....
and stock LS-6 won't be able to beat you till ya get over 130Mph......By thime he catches up you will abat almose 160Mph.
Just food for thought guy.

as long as you havce a your new engine picked out and built in time man..............
Third gen's are Junk in the body they don't like to sit they rust fast. But there cheap Fun . and there so shiney tho.
I love third gen's but if you let it sit 1 year or more they just go all to junk.....
so along as it you got an engine ready to roll,it syck's when a good car get's crushed cause some kid sat at the wall instead of working on it thats all seen it a million time's.
all the "i'mma going to fix up" or 'i'll get to it" well your saying it and doing nothing a once good car goe's to heck and get's crished all i'm saying don't sit around and think about it do it..........
