Crate motor with FI

I have 92 RS with a tired 305, I am looking to buy a crate 350 of ebay with about 9.5:1 ratio for pump gas, it will still be driven quite a bit. My question is what type of FI setup do you recommend, I noticed people talk about the LT1 setup, what modifacations would you have to make to put lt1 heads and intake on it, and would be to much trouble with the wiring harness and things or could I do some sensor deletes? I was first considering the Edelbrock proflo, or Holley stealth Ram, what my best bang for the buck.

well im in the process of doing the lt1 intake setup swap on my 383 and let me tell you that anything else might cost more but it will look much better i would reccomend the mini ram setup from TPIS you just can beat it. It is expensive but well worth it. the built in thermostat housing makes it sooooooooo much better than an lt1 swap. It is a good swap dotn get me wrong but the TPIS Mini Ram will look way cleaner in the engine bay as you dont have to find a spot to mount the remote thermostat houseing and the coolant lines that run from it. this is just my opinion so dont take it as the final answer to all.
