Hi everyone, brand new here. So I joined to get some insight from people who obviously have been at this longer than me. So here goes. I have a 1991 Silverado K1500 with a stock tbi 350 and I am wanting to convert it to a carburetor. I was going to get a new intake manifold, carburetor, and full MSD ignition system (to get rid of the need for a computer). Anyway, I'm thinking, since I have to get a new intake manifold anyway, I would kinda like to get new heads as well and maybe a different cam. This truck is a little over 6,000 lbs with a 6 inch lift and 35 inch tires so I was thinking it would be nice to have some more torque. I know it's a big truck but I also like the idea of it being big AND fast. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking around the 500 or 600 foot pounds of torque range would be nice. So what exactly would I need to do to pull that off? Am I looking at a whole new built engine or is the stock block something I can work with and build up from there? New rods, pistons, maybe even a new crank? Would it have to be four bolt main or would two be ok? Any help or info and suggestions would be much appreciated.
