Hey guys....I just re-purchased my 87 IROC Z28. and as most of you know this one came with the TPI 305 HO and that just isnt going to do it for me....Now i would like to drop an ls1 in it for the extra power...What will need to be done to replace the 305 HO with the 5.7 ls1.......I was born in 87 HAHA so im not real sure how strong these vehicle were built as far as rear end and stuff....So a little information would be awesome....Also im stuck between keeping it fuel injected or making it carb ......

Thanks again
