That makes it a 383(6.3 ltr) which makes using the stock TPI intake even worse, your going to starve the motor for air,the TPI intake flows perfect air for small CI motors like 305's...why are you dead set on keeping the TPI when there are alot better FI intakes that are direct bolt ons.

any cubic inch change, injector change, internal engine change, the list goes on will require calibration for you to see any gains for the money and time invested in the upgrades. small mods like exhaust and such really dont require any tuning small bolt ons like rocker arms, or minimal intake changes dont either.

if you plan on making power... might as well plan on running a different intake at least

There are several intakes that still use the stock ECM, some even still look like the stock tpi and flow alot better, but stock TPI intakes are crap, they just cant move enough air to support any amount of HP.
