GM Vortec Manifold W/ TBI and ECR usage

GM performance parts has a new vortec manifold with throttle body injection and this manifold will fit all vortec cylinder heads GM part #12496821. My question is can I put this manifold along with matching vortec heads on the 305 TBI LO3


92 RS mods K & N air filter, thermomaster chip, turbo muffler, and finally for laughs I put in the Tornado unit.

Thank you very much Chuck for your reply. Can Icall upon you again for your expert or anyone so inclined to answer. WillIhave to burn a new chip? What about a new aftermarket tbi. Will the fuel pump be sufficient? Will cooling be a problem? Exhust?

i was also considering going with vortex heads inplace of the world products...which are better? i know the vortex will make me loose compression but will i still see better gains with them? also i want to run n2o so wouldnt it be better to have lower compression?
