Thanks for the info Dave,
This thing (now that I've got some other numbers)--runs at 154 BL at =
cruise. Idle is at 132 (close enough) ---so I'm assuming WOT is going to =
be pretty lean.=20
Here's some more specs...Cam duration 283 INT and 286 EXH, Intake lift =
is .435
and exhaust is .455. Compression ratio is 9.4 to 1 and the heads have =
been ported to match Vortec specs (this truck is a 1988). 3.42 ratio =
diff is what we're working with--and actually the truck peels around =
pretty good the way it is...we're just a little concerned about the lean =
ratio at cruise and WOT. I'll try adding 15% across the upper end of the =
fuel map to start with...

Lyndon.

    On a MAF system, if you UP the fuel pressure 7 - 10 %, and set the =
flow rate to a value 7 - 10% higher, the 305 injectors will have the =
best chance on a un-hotrodded 350 motor IMO.  you can add 20% more FP =
and mess up idle and cause BLM skewing, and the WOT will have more fuel, =
or you can leave the FP alone and idle will be great but WOT may have =
the injectors static and still have low o2 readings.  Either is a =
comprimise.  305 to 350 =3D bit more than 14% more air, need 14% more =
fuel and thats with no other intake mods. If you were using 12ms at WOT =
on the 305 you'll use the same injectors 14% longer in the 350 - closer =
to static (or over)
   =20
    dont just change the BPW by 14%, (in a MAF) you'll do the opposite =
of what you are after. the injector base PW should be the actual setting =
for the injectors used - then you adjust it a bit for more FP.. which =
makes the injectors have a higher flow rate than they are "stamped". a =
better spray pattern too.  On a TPI (not TBI) each of the 8 are rated at =
19#/hr for a 305 and 22#/hr for a 350. 19 * 1.14 =3D 21.66 amazingly... =
keeps the injectors below something like 80% of max duty cycle.
   =20
    and you're "off road" so no problem with the feds.
   =20
    Please anyone correct anything. I'm not a pro, I just play one on =
TV.

    PS - my soon to be dropped-in 383 will start out with 350 injectors. =

        Greetings guys,
        =20
        Just wondering what BPW numbers would do when a guy changes a =
305 to a 350. The 1988 TBI injectors are different, PROM BPW numbers are =
148 for a 305 and 135 for a 350. This is based on flow in =
grams/sec...what would you have to set a 305 injector to, to work in a =
350 properly -- or is the flow rate too low already ?
        =20
        Lyndon.
