Year? Transmission?

That engine uses Vortec heads, which won't work with a factory TPI intake according to this article http://www.gmhightechperformance.com..._tpi_manifold/

So you will need an alternative MPFI intake at the very least.

You will need 22#hr injectors. Southbay fuel injectors have a great deal on their bosh 3s. You will also need your computers memcal reprogramed,
