454TPI? is it possible?

Ok, I'm in the middle of a 355 build and the intake i'm going to run is a weiand stealth ram... thing is they make a base that bolts to a big block. So could you used a tpi computer and harness to run a big block? I plan on building an old 60's impala(kinda needs a big block, they are heavy)...I'm very intregued by this..anybody done this? thoughts?

Hi-flow injectors.....customized chip....go for it. Burning your own chips/datalogging would be the only way...
