1999 Chevy Silverado Vortec 350 Converted to Holley Carburetor , 262 Cam, HEI Distributor, Headers

It took me about 5 months to do the first one, working on it as I could, not full-time dedicated to this project, trial & error, obstacles, but I finally got it there. Still need to tie up the loose ends, some more wiring & details but she runs like a scalded Tasmanian Devil.

Nice job guys! I converted my 1997 5.2L Magnum Dodge Ram 1500 to Carb. Just use the computer to read sensors and feed the gauge cluster. I got tired of only being able to find chinese crank sensors for the 5 speed model that I have, sensors that crap out in a week or two. I got tired of changing them after 5 times. Put in a '73 Charger R/T electronic distributor, Accel Gen III HEI module, stand alone alternator controller, Dual Plane RPM performer manifold, 625cfm Carter AFB Carb. No longer have any problems and I can find parts at any auto parts house. The power increase was substantial.

Thank you!!!!!!! Now I know what to do this summer!

I did the same dual air filter thing on my 1985 Chevy C10 with a 97 350 and aftermarket Vortec Summit heads. It's better than paying for the expensive tall air filter

[@apocalypse4720]

did you have re change a lot of the wiring for this conversion?

[@reinaldogarcia5335]

That is awesome,,,thanks so much for posting

[@yoitzgrazz]

I have a 97 vortec 5.7 with an aftermarket hei distributer. Did you have any problems with the stock distributer gear if it’s a roller cam? People say you must use a melonized gear. Plus did you change the front timing chain cover? Mine only has a molded in notch on stock cover and not a degree tab. Thanks

[@hiswordheals9710]

Stock flex plate and balancer or older non EFI style?

[@danielshort2126]

No one has ever said that can't be done. But what can't be done is the instrument panel. Genius

[@jaym6325]

Did they keep the 4l60 transmission though

[@ronspencer676]

What are you doing with the bulk head harnness for the original injectors.

[@puch7261]

what transmission you use stock? you said you tool out all the ecu’s?

[@eugenejohnson8635]

How much did you pay to do all that work I have a 1998 Chevy k1500 4+4 just wondering if I can fix mine like that I like to put a383 in it

[@shawnrobinson726]

I 've never seen a carburetor on a ls motor good video

[@darnellvassar3959]

What is that for transmission

[@jerrylegates3023]

Same wheels on my 89 Cheyenne, good look

[@stephendamon6054]

What did u do for the fuel system

[@Smaze1762]

Did you have to degree the cam or were you able to drop it in and go?

[@MatthewSmith193]

Those wheels are awesome. I've got the same Ultra type 50/51 on my OBS but mine are six lug. Very cool build.

[@jeremiahhenderson8107]

I have a 96 automatic 4x4 looking to swap to carb how much is the shift controller and how hard is it to wire?

[@tonesdrones7395]
