Best Answer

Every part of the computer control and injection system needs to be considered. For example, the fuel pump of an injected system runs at a much higher pressure than a carburated system. You'll need to work that out. You would need to work around the electronics for the ignition if you decide to use a HEI system and you'd probably need to do some rewiring of the keyswitch circuit as well as possibly some modifications to the gauges. Understand that most injector fuel pumps are also connected to the fuel gauge system. Whatever you THINK you've worked out, there will be additional concerns. But it can certainly be done. Converting the engine will probably be the easy part.
