Superram install

Sorry if this has been posted before but I cant find any article here about converting a stock tpi to a superram. I definately would like to go this route but I have a few questions. What do I need to install one? Is it a direct bolt in or do I need to modify some things? Like will the stock fuel rails work without modification? Also how about injectors?
If anyone knows things I would need please post.

Not to be harsh but if you havent found anyhting then you need to refine your search method.

This has been beat to death both here and at the Vette forum.

www.corvetteforum.com

Every single question you have posted I have personally viewed an answer for online at one or the other forums mentioned above.

Sorry but I assumed it may have been a sticky in this forum. I got like 5 results from a search for superram in the corvette forum and not one answered any of my questions. I will assume it will just swap. Most of the posts I find are dyno numbers and comparisons. Well I was able to answer a few of my questions by refining my search but its difficult when you dont know what exactly will cause problems then you dont know what to search for. The accel installation manual says its an complete swap over but I have been told that before. Be nice to know if anyone had any problems with the swap before i shell out $800 for an intake.

should be a swap (not too easy though) depending on what year third gen you have you will have to move the wiper motor against the firewall( to get more clearance ) and take off some rocker arms to mount the runners to the intake and get a 1/4 inch twelve point gear wrench to put the upper intake to the runners(lot of bolts) had to do this on my 89 formula when I did this swap too.
