Harmonic balancer

My son has an 85 firebird 2.8 that is shot now and we are thinking of going with the 3.4 after reading on here, it has a five speed in it would I need to (1 )change the flywheel to a neutrally balanced one (2) use the 2.8 harmonic balancer or get one for the 3.4 (3) do you use the 2.8 injecters or do you have to get 3.4 ones I read in the swap boogie he put 3.4's in but noone else has siad if they did.
thanks forthe help

1) Yup, get a neutrally balanced flywheel
2) I would get one for the 3.4 just to be sure
3) 3.4L injectors aren't required to run, but to run well....

neutral flywheel/flex
3.4 balancer(your 2.8 one may be balanced with the crank)
3.4 injectors (it can run on 2.8's, but its lean)
