If the 327 is tired or worn out go ahead and drop the 350 in and store the 327 away. Just in case you want to go back original. The 350 will have a lot more low end torque and thats good for street use. You will probably be able to keep it in high gear anyway. I love 3 on the tree, I would keep that for sure.

I would leave the 327 in the car.

The Q-jet carb will work great on your 283 Because it is vacuum operated and has small primaries. You will need to have it calibrated for your engine combo. But you need a non ECM controlled carb. The early 80s cars had them. Most trucks have the one you need . Stay away from the ecm carbs because you can not use them without the ecm (JUNK!!!!!). Look at the carb on the front pass side corner there will be an electronic connector on the top plate.

I'm partial to 283's but if you pull it to put in the 350, do what Chevelle83 says and put it in the corner of the garage.
