when you mean corvette, are you referring to HITHERE corvette TPI setup, or an LS1? If it's LS1, then yeah HITHERE would go for it, but make sure that price includes the engine.
If you're talking about upgrading an existing TPI to a Corvette manifold then no, it's not worth it. The Corvettes and Camaros had the same manifolds (with a few minor non-performance differences).
If you're talking about upgrading from a carb to a TPI, if the system is complete and in good condition, then it would probably be worth it. As long as you are aware of what it is going to take to do. It probably cost me about $1500 to convert my 1971 from carb to fuel injection and it was DEFINITELY worth it. I started out with all stock parts to get the car running with the stock chip and then upgraded to the hi-po stuff later. This nice thing for you is that your car was designed for it which will make it alot easier than it was for me.
