    305 tbi to 350 tbi swap

    Ok, so I have a 1995 chevy k1500 with a 305 tbi/ 4l60e, and I would like to swap in a 350 tbi. Upon doing research, I find that there isn't a straight answer on what is needed for the swap. I know that I'll need the 350 throttle body and injectors, but anything beyond that is where I'm lost...

    TBI to Vortec head question

    Ahh, ok. Thanks again for all the info, I think I will just hold off until the motor blows, then get a 350.

    TBI to Vortec head question

    Wow, first off, thanks for all the info, I really appreciate you going through all of that to answer my questions. Second, im pretty much gathering that a 305 in a truck is a waste of time when it comes to modifying it, but if i chose to, im looking at getting a lot more into it for a lot less...

    TBI to Vortec head question

    Wow, thanks for al the responses. If there was any confusion in what I'm doing, I'm sorry I wasn't more clear, but I would like to put 305 vortec heads on my 305. Another question: Is there any specific casting numbers I should look for? Or can I just tell the cylinder head guy I want 305...

    TBI to Vortec head question

    well, its a slow boat, lol. I mean, I'm not looking to get a drag racer out of my truck, but it would be nice to be able to be at highway speed when I get to the highway. Although I don't have any complaints about how mine hauls, I pull a 17ft walkthrough, which weighs in at roughly 1000lbs (not...

    TBI to Vortec head question

    Thank you, its good to finally get a straight answer. I might just wait for the motor to blow, then upgrade to a 350, then start adding things like heads, intake, and other goodies. the truck is really a daily driver, but I'm trying to fix it up and make it all pretty, and one thing that bothers...

    Y-pipe question

    Wow, those prices are a lot cheaper than what I have been finding, that is probably the way im going to go. The only thing that is confusing me is that the factory intermediate pipe has a lot of different bends in it, and i dont exactly have access to a tubing bender. Would leaving it straight...

    TBI to Vortec head question

    I would love to swap to a 350, but I don't exactly have the means to do a motor swap, so I was hoping to get some info on a vortec head swap, and do that to gain some power out of my 305.

    TBI to Vortec head question

    Ok, so I know I have seen some posts about a TBI to Vortec head swap on here, but I just get into more of a fog on the whole idea when I read them. Some people say they swapped the heads and intake with no issues, then some say that it ran like crap. So, I have a few of questions about it. I...

    Y-pipe question

    Thank you for the answers, I already have exhaust on the truck, but I was looking to redo it, because I'm not a huge fan of how the shop routed it, and was looking for a fairly inexpensive way to make it how I want. The jegs y-pipe should fit if the oem cat assembly will fit, at least in my...

    power lock question

    Hello, I have a 1995 k1500, and I recently went to a junkyard and got some doors. I first put on the passenger side door, and everything worked fine. Then I did the drivers side, and now the power lock switches don't work. I swapped the door lock actuator and ALL of the wires from my old door...

    Y-pipe question

    Well, it would be an easy way to make true dual exhaust, and I haven't seen any answers on it, maybe because it fits. I was just hoping for some confirmation, probably a dumb question, but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask

    Y-pipe question

    Hello, I have a 1995 K1500 with the 305 tbi, and I was wondering if a vortec catalytic converter assembly would fit in place of my y-pipe? comparing the two, it seems similar enough, but I was wondering if anyone else has done this?

    For the most part, I like them. My only complaints are that the halos themselves aren't the brightest, and they are a pain to aim, but other than that, I like them a lot. every once in a while, if it is humid enough, they will fog up slightly, but its nothing too crazy

    Yeah, I agree that they only look good on one side, but my main reason for replacing them is just because I love the look of the newer style 17's on these trucks

    New member here, love seeing all the trucks on here, and getting inspiration for what I want to do with mine. I have a 1995 K1500 ECSB 4x4 305, with 215,XXX with Flowmaster exhaust, and TB and injector spacers. Here is a pic as of April: And here are some as of tonight: And soon to have...
