    Keep Manifolds or get shorties?

    Shorties help top end which matters more in Vortecs than TBI, but if you are doing the whole exhaust anyway might as well go for it.

    Has anyone used a Holley 2 Barrel on TBI adapter plate

    If you are going old school HEI/Carb just get an intake manifold from Edelbrock/Weiand/87-88 Monte SS and put a Holley 4 barrel on it.

    Big mother thumper cam in a 89 350 tbi, is it possible?

    I'm guessing he just wants the sound. I'd look at Isky cams, they have cams that lope but are mild.

    L98 into K1500--> HEADS?

    It's not a 113 head if it is an 87 and original. They had the 128 head, which flows less over the exhaust side, has factory guideplates. If they check out sell them to a Vette owner and buy aftermarket heads., unless you really want a GM al head then send them to Lingenfelter for porting and...

    305 TBI Header (?)s

    A relative of mine had two good 305 TPI engines I could have had dirt cheap a few years ago, i did not get them because you know 305s but i wish I had as @L31MaxExpress said good 350's disappearing fast, and 305s/334s can be good runners for daily driven trucks.

    Chevy distributor cap condensation issues

    Do a search here for the UMP cap at RockAuto or look at the reviews at Summittracing, the Summitt cap is the same as the UMP one.

    Low Cost Camshaft Options - Need Opinions

    If it is a TBI engine with Vortec heads then yes Summitt 8800, basically a roller version of that old Melling RV cam.

    Ignition control module

    Did you change your rotor? That was my problem with that code. Also I have had bad Delphi/Delco parts but Standard seems to be good, could just be dumb luck though.

    Head Swap Options For 5.7L 350 TBI Engine

    Ya sure but I believe he is talking stock heads not Mexican Vortecs so no real difference. I still think his best bet buy new heads either Jegs Vortecs which are less $ than the GM Mexican ones, or Trick Flow 87-95 heads and no worries about changing intakes/water pump but obviously cost more...

    Head Swap Options For 5.7L 350 TBI Engine

    906 and 062 are the same head anyway so no problem there, I think the difference in casting #s is two different plants.

    Are United Motor Products distributors adjustable for Cam Retard?

    You need the GM hold down to adjust it, and the code doesn't pop up unless it is +-13 I believe. My UMP ran better with a Standard cap, though I didn't have their better cap.
