      Computer controlled Q-Jet

      Can anyone tell me if I can unhook the computer in my dad's '87 Monte SS and still have the computer controlled carb work? The motor is a 355 built by Tony Bischoff at BES, it has Trick Flow twisted wedge heads, edelbrock performer RPM Q-Jet intake and a Carb Shop Q-Jet. I'm going to put a regular HEI distributor in it and was wondering if the carb would operate when I unhook the computer. I don't know what the guy was thinking when he tried to control a custom 355 engine with a computer that thinks it's a stock 305. How is that gonna work? I'm hoping that once I rid the car of the computer this thing will run much better. There are plans to replace the carb, but if I can get away with just unhooking the computer from it for now, that would be good.
      Anyone that can shed some light on this for me would be greatly appreciated!
