Moving this to the TPI board, I think you'll get better results there.

Yes you would need the 22lbs injectors. It would probably run with the 19lbs injectors but you would be maxing them out quite regularly so the 22lbs would be a better fit. Same goes for the prom, it will run with the 19lbs injectors programmed in (probably poorly) but it will be more efficient and have better power with it programmed with 22 lbs injectors. You can reprogram your current chip with the right tools or find somebody locally with the prom burning equipment to make the change for you, or find a factory prom from a 87-88 350 f-body car and go from there.
