Been a long time since I messed with carbs. And I do not miss messing with them.

As for the stand alone trans controller. TCI and MSD both have one to run a stand alone 4L60E. I am sure there are others too.

I know PCS makes the GM Performance Parts Stand alone transmission controller.

Saw recently there are externally jet adjustable carbs now. No idea how long but pretty incredible. I think they were Holley based. That's all I know about them.

LS Swaps with fuel injection is just too easy nowadays. There would be no benefit from a carb setup.
