Vortec vs TBI - Stupid Questions, need answers please :)

I'm using a 98 Vortec long block which I rebuilt in my sons 94 Z71. I used a Performer intake for the Vortec heads and a trans adaptor for the TBI off a 7.4L engine which I think its flows 600cfm I hope to have it running by next month.

porting

Where you will gain the most is bowl blending right underneath the valve intake and exhaust.

Need help '97 vortec - Edelbrock Power package top end

I am not sure on that cam choice, a little big for my taste. I wouldn't go bigger than 218/225 @.050 on duration and 490 to 510 lift max but that's just me. CL about 110 to 112

5.3 Build for 95 1/2 ton swap

I have heard from a very good friend who installs cams all the time in several different applications, that the BTR truck cams work great in the stage two or stage three without the use of a high stall convertor. Just sharing info. https://www.briantooleyracing.com/camshafts/truck-cams.html

What Size Lift to Run on 33s

Yes I agree, no lift is needed just adjust the torsion bars. I had 33's on my 91 Z71 for 100,000 miles just had to trim the front bumper just a little.

2002 AWD transfer case

So I picked up a AWD case and 4l80E the other day, now just wondering what I would need to do in order to install in the 94 Z71 truck? What would be the difference between the front diffs and driveline if any?
