That is why it may be better to stick with a TBI program (it takes into 
account that the TBI is a long way from the intake port!) and just build a 
driver board for the number of TBI units you have (2 or 3) and change the 
injector constant, or go with 1/2 or 1/3 size of stock on the injectors (or 
double/triple the air flow into the engine!!!)
