You would need a 350 knock sensor, 22 lb injectors and a 350 memcal. I would look for another option for a long block though, the heads and cam in/on that one leave much to be desired. I believe they offer a L98 short block which would be better, you could also get a set of 083 knock off heads from pro topline for pretty cheap money.

I dont want to correct anyone,But he can use his original knock sensor. He should have a new prom burned for optimum performance. This is a mass airflow system!! same Knock sensor.

I am somewhat amazed they get 290HP out of that motor.

The camshaft has .450" intake and .460" exhaust lift with hydraulic flat tappets.
The cast iron cylinder heads have 1.94" intake and 1.50" exhaust valves wit 76 cc combustion chamber.
Low lift. Non-roller. 76cc heads.

Could be right, in which case I stand corrected. I do know the speed density systems in 91 used different knock sensors for the two. Sorry if I messed you up and you bought an extra knock sensor!
