Definitely get the fuel delivery system right before you put the boost to it. Unless you have extra shortblocks sitting around.

Don't chance it, get some injectors and make sure you have a 255lph fuel pump before you put the boost to it.....

You're gonna be rockin the 19 lb injectors and a 2-peice motor if you run it without upgrading them.
