L98 engine under a stock TBI system?
L98 engine under a stock TBI system?
Hey guys, I was just wondering if I can swap in a L98 longblock (which I got CHEAP) into my TBI car. I have a completely stock L05 TBI setup in my Bird. Will this thing run or can I buy a chip somewhere that will remedy any problems I may run into. Honestly I would love to hear that this thing will run like a champ, but my common sense tells me otherwise. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

you can install it. You need to change the knock sensor, ESC module, and chip in your computer. It'll run fine.

yup forgot about the injectors duh. you can even run 61# injectors if you have them, or have to buy some. that way you can do more mods to it
