Carb 2.8L to 3.1L EFI swap questions

If i have a 2.8L Carby engine in my camaro atm, if i swap an injected 3.1L will a megasquirt control all of the fuel needs for it to get up and running?

Ok cool, ive got a 3.1l Injected engine sitting in my garage so i might see how how it would be to get all the wiring hooked up to this engine before i rip the 2.8l out, then when i get the 3.1 in i can start the turbo build!

Did you get the megasquirt or use the original?

I used the original ECM while Project89 used the megasquirt system.
