I dont see any major problem in "getting them to work" as long as you install an adjustable fuel pressure regulator (AFPR). You should have the capability to measure the fuel pressure, the O2 sensor output (or air/fuel ratio) and some on road performance level, such as, a 1/4 mile run at the dragstrip. You fine tune the engine performance based on the fuel pressure versus some measureable performance level that best suits you.

Thanks, doc. The Holley AFPR is said to go down to 36psi, and isn't stock higher than that? Can I turn down the fuel pressure 2-3psi from stock? That should do the trick, and then when I get more mods the fuel will already be there, unlike with the 21# Accels. Thanks.

The stock GM fuel pressure varies a bit from car to car because the fuel pressure regulators vary themselves. A reasonable stock fuel pressure would be around 43 to 45 psi for the later 3rd gen TPI cars.
