Yep, it can be done.  Check this (http://www.coolcats.net/tech/advanced/tbi_conversion.html) out for the info.  If you're looking for a little more bump with a little less work in the conversion department, You should swap out the 3.8's Throttle body for the bigger 5.0 version.  It's a really easy swap and I'm guessing a junker's TB would be cheaper than a new holley carb.  If you have more questions about the TB swap, ask away, jcassity will more than likely jump on it.  If you still want to do the carb thing, the write up is linked above.  Thank you, come again.
