buying tpi, where do i start?

So i might buy an iroc soon and it has a 5.7 tpi, my last thirdgen was a tbi car and i made it a carb..but after having issues with my air fuel mixture i want to keep this one tpi or at least try to. so im not sure what i should look out for so i need some help.


What would be the first things u would replace when buying an original tpi motor. I dont want to have any stalling issues with this car and am willing to put down the money to get it running right.

I know a tune up of course, but what other sensors should i replace to prevent the car from stalling on me, i need it to be as reliable as possible so i want to prepare for the worst.
