My documented TBI-to-Vortec 350 conversion!

I also made sure to go overboard with silicone tape so that I don't have any leaking later on

Haha I'm SO glad to have all that crap gone. I have a feeling she's gonna run SOOOO much better, not counting the new heads!

That could potentially be cheaper, I just like the look of these!

i like the ebay ones, we ran some on a friends turbo ls car we liked the way they looked then we had another friend add some bungs on the rear of them for the pcv or what not, and then me and my other friend powdercoated them in his garage. its nice having a community of fbody lovers and gear heads at your disposal.

Also, your truck has a roller cam... that isnt stock for a tbi truck engine...

I believe it was "A" coded trucks that came with rollers stock, "R" coded did not...
Don't quote me, but when I was doing a lot of research for different mods to my buddies '95 I remember coming across that. Never owned a TBI myself but I've done plenty of intake and head gaskets on them, and remember seeing a lifter spider or two on some old farm trucks with original powerplants

As far as a I know, all truck engines are flat tappet until 1996, I don't know what u mean by "A" code, a truck TBI 350 is a L05
