if you get an intake off a 360 you can bolt a 2brl chevy to it if your a gm guy.... if you get a 318 youll need an adapter or a 318 carb which kinda suck

If I'm not wrong the 305 and 350 carbs are different and the 305 Rochester bolts to the 318 and the 350 Rochester bolts to the 360

Mr Gasket has an adapter for it, they only drill it for one pattern but the blank is there so you can drill or mill it to accept both. |

Change timing covers also, unless they made tbi timing covers with a block off plate for the mechanical fuel pump.

I have a blue block 318 that someone modified to run in a 92 tbi truck. We made an adaptor plate to use a carb and points distributor, but looking back, it would have been easier to change the intake, which I finally got around to doing.
As for the fuel pump block off plate, should be able to make one, or buy one from an auto parts store or ebay.
