fueling a 383 stroker tpi

Hey guys. I'm thinking about buying a 383 stroker short block and bolting all my 350 stuff to it. Then buying a 224-230 duration cam and maybe a stall converter. But my question is.. will the combination of a adjustable fuel pressure regulator with stock injectors and ported heads with a stock ecu be able to fuel my stroker the right amount. If so..how much pressure? And if not would the TPIS chip do it justice?

Stock ECM will be fine but you should get a custom tune for it , not a generic " off the shelf " chip

There are plenty of online calculators you can use to work out required injector size base on Hp expected, fuel pressure , etc
24lb are about the defacto min for a 383 , some run 32lb injectors

South Bay recommended 30 lb-ers for my 383, my engine builder predicted around 425 fwhp. Ask them.
